About
At La Due Guitars, I custom build acoustic guitars, primarily from Northeastern hardwoods. I share videos about guitar making, shop and equipment maintenance and woodworking in general. From time to time, even some humor. I have been a woodworker nearly all my life, a shop teacher for 33 years, a guitar maker for 31 years and a player since 1965. I call myself "The Pragmatic Luthier" because I practice frugality in my life and my work. I'm not easily impressed with the myriad of slick exotic tools, jigs and gimmicks foisted on woodworkers and guitar makers, nor am I impressed with shell game tips and tricks videos aimed at monetizing more than genuinely sharing information and expertise.
