Interview with Luthier Ryan Gerber

When it comes to crafting (and playing) fine fingerstyle guitars, Ohio-based luthier Ryan Gerber is one of the best. Recently he came to visit us to deliver a bespoke build for one of our customers, and we were absolutely delighted to hear him play his original compositions and to talk about his history and inspirations as a guitar maker. Thank you, Ryan, for generously sharing your time and talents with us!
