Savage Guitars - Custom Handcrafted Guitars

Description

Ken Savage knows wood. He has worked with wood for thirty years. He began his career by constructing custom homes, then worked as a shipwright building sailboats, and then ran his own highly successful fine furniture business. His drive to take on the challenges of varied woodworking projects has made him a master craftsman, intimately aware of the properties and possibilities of wood. Making world-class guitars is the finest use of his accumulated skills.

Next to wood, the thing Ken knows best is music. Like his woodworking, Ken's guitar playing has evolved over three decades. When he isn't working in his studio, he's playing guitar - alone, in pickup sessions with friends, or in performances with his band members. As his commitment to music grew, it was natural that he would find a way to combine his woodworking talents with his love for music.

Ken built his first guitar for himself, intending to make an instrument with better tonal qualities than the production guitars available in stores. With his background in fine woodworking and his exceptional ear, his first effort was a guitar he continues to use in performances. Soon, fellow musicians were noticing his Savage guitar and asking him to build guitars for them. Word of Ken's high quality guitars spread quickly, and he found himself building a reputation as a serious luthier with requests for guitars from all over the country.
