Our Story
Music has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From the moment I first picked up a guitar, I was hooked — not just on playing, but on understanding what makes each instrument come alive. Over the years, that curiosity turned into a passion for maintaining, repairing, and restoring guitars so they play and sound their very best.
​
After decades of playing, performing, and helping friends fine-tune their instruments, I decided to turn that passion into something more — a place where guitarists of all ages and skill levels can come for expert care, honest advice, and a little inspiration.
​
At Chapel Hill Guitar Repair, every instrument has a story. Whether it’s a young student’s first guitar or a vintage treasure passed down through generations, I treat each one with the same attention and respect. Because when your guitar feels right, the music just flows.
