Revelation Guitars
The Craftsman
Experience: 15 years
Building instruments is not "rocket science". People have been doing it for thousands of years. It does, however, require a certain skill set which includes: knowledge, patience and a passion for excellence. The end result for the craftsman is a profound sense of fullfilment and accomplishment. For the musician, it means an instrument that urges one forward to new arenas of creativity. A passionate, able craftsman produces a fine instrument that does that.
Revelation vs. Duplication
People often ask how long it takes to build a guitar. The answer varies dramatically depending on whether one is designing and building something new and different or dupluicating an existing design. To date, most of my later guitars have been designed and built with attention to the smallest detail from basic body dimensions to the wood used for an inlay. This sometimes take countless hours of research and "trial and error". I believe a successful end result is well worth the work put into it to create a one of a kind instrument.
