If you're wondering why most of Mike's reviews are from California, it's because that's where he was established for many years and built up quite the reputation and has now relocated to PDX....

History
Almost twenty years ago I had a nightmare repair job done on one of my guitars. Since then I have been working on my own instruments. Soon, friends were having me do repairs for them. After doing some time at the Taylor factory in San Diego, I moved back to the Bay Area to work at Gryphon Stringed Instruments in Palo Alto. Being shop foreman at Gryphon for eleven years afforded me many opportunities to learn a thing or two. Fortunately, I made use of those opportunities and turned those opportunities into a wealth of experience. Several years ago, I decided to hang my own shingle. It's been a fun ride so far! : ) Mike
