There is a renaissance of independent guitar building happening right now. My guest in this episode of Sharkey’s Treehouse is one of those luthiers who is hand-making guitars and a name for himself as a talented artisan. Barry Grzebik (pronounced Grez-bick) has been making his own brand of instruments, Grez Guitars, for more than a decade. In this episode we met Barry at his home in Petaluma, California, to talk about the craft of guitar making. He takes us to his wood shop and shows us how he chooses the raw wood, and slowly transforms it into a beautiful, and beautifully sounding, musical instrument. Barry has acquired many of the tools, fixtures and moulds used for making arch-top guitars from RC Allen’s shop in Southern California after Mr. Allen, a legendary guitar maker, died. We’ll learn what wood makes a guitar valuable, sound good and look gorgeous and what makes a good guitar builder. We’ll also get to hear some examples of some of them.
