Claudio & Claudia Pagelli
Pagelli Guitars
Meet the dynamic duo of Swiss guitar building. Claudio and Claudia Pagelli have a foible for the exquisite and a devotion to the exceptional. This is the place where custom orders are the dish of the day. There are no lengths the Pagelli's will not go to ensure that their clients will receive exactly the one of a kind instrument they have always dreamed of. Gourmet Guitars went to Switzerland to meet the Pagelli's on their home turf. Scale the Swiss Alps, catch a glimpse of Alpine life and experience barely bridled creativity. Go to the point where traditional guitar building ends. This is where Pagelli begins.
Ulrich Teuffel
Teuffel Guitars
If there is one man who revolutionized the meaning of the term "form follows function" in modern guitar building, it would have to be Ulrich Teuffel. His first brainchild, the "Birdfish," has long become a design icon of the post-modern era and the Teuffel "Tesla" has evolved into a type of sound emblem or altarpiece for the world's best avant-garde guitarists. Gourmet Guitars drove to the edges of Bavaria to meet with the enfant-terrible of the international guitar builders' scene. Sit back and take notes while Ulrich Teuffel shares his thoughts on Leo Fender, the evolution of the electric guitar and the limitless horizons for lutherie.
Mike Lewis
Fine Resophonic Guitars
Mike Lewis is a maker, and what he makes best are some of the finest hand-made, National-style resophonic guitars on the planet. Gourmet Guitars went to Paris to meet the man who has built guitars for some of the world's most famous bluesmen (Eric Clapton, Michael Messer, and many more). We were delighted to find out that Mike Lewis is also one of the most charming, down-to-earth individuals that we have ever met. Come join us and listen to the man who has recreated and captured the haunting sound of a by-gone era. Discover for yourself what Paul Simon meant when he sang, "the Mississippi Delta is shining like a National Guitar??"

Rick Turner
Rick Turner &
Renaissance
Guitars
Some men are born innovators, and Rick Turner is one of
them. Whether perusing the dusty annals of rock history or "googling" the latest
in sound innovation, you will find Rick Turner's name on almost every page.
Another die-hard resident of Santa Cruz, California, Gourmet Guitars met Rick in
his shop and got to take a peek at "wiggle wood," the "Mama Bear," and ceramic
frets.
There is a palpable flow of creative energy pulsing though the veins of Rick Turner & Renaissance Guitars. See what happens when a man who has memorized the rule book, just throws it away.
Kim Walker
Walker Guitars
"My designs are more
evolutionary than they are revolutionary." What sounds a bit like overstated
modesty is in truth the core of Kim Walker's guitar-building philosophy.
If you take the best of Old World tradition and the best
of modern technology, you get Walker Guitars, some of the best acoustic
instruments that have ever been built. Scott Chinery evidently shared this
thought when he commissioned Kim to build the "Blue Empress," an archtop
destined to be included in the exclusive Blue Guitars exhibit of the Chinery
Collection. Whether archtop or flat top, finger-style or flat-picker, the
Gourmet Guitars Team was in awe with the beauty of tone and Kim Walker's obvious
mastery of the craft.
Michael Lewis
D'Angelico Guitars &
Michael Lewis
Instruments
Deep in the woods of Northern California lives a
man who is at peace - with nature, with himself and with the magnificent beauty
and sound of an acoustic guitar. Michael Lewis builds an exclusive personal line
of archtop guitars and mandolins. He also builds the only officially authorized
D'Angelico archtop guitar replicas in the United States.
Gourmet Guitars went to Grass Valley stressed and harried
from 3 weeks on the road. There is nothing more grounding and peaceful than
playing a coastal redwood topped guitar in the middle of a California forest.
Sit back and relax across from the babbling brook on Michael Lewis's property,
and listen to him speak about the love for his calling to build some of the most
extraordinary archtop guitars and mandolins of our times.

John Monteleone
Monteleone Guitars
There are very few names that consistently top of the list of greatness in the contruction of archtop guitars, but John Monteleone has found a spot at the top and just won't budge.
Breathtaking and awe-inspiring are two words that come to mind when you have the opportunity to behold a Monteleone Guitar. From the beauty of hand-crafting guitars to the secrets of home-made pizza, Gourmet Guitars literally ate up all of that Italian tradition we encountered in John's Islip workshop.

Michael Spalt
Spalt
Instruments
Some people have to make an effort to stand out in a crowd, you couldn't miss Michale Spalt with his captivating Totem Guitars and archetype hybrid basses if you tried. What is it about Austrians and California? Gourmet Guitars just had to make a trip to the city of angels to find out what Michael Spalt is all about. Art or instrument? That is the question. Michael Spalt has a lot of answers. We were absolutely blown away by the sound of Michael Spalt's resin-topped artworks. Does the utilitarian aspect of a guitar preclude from being a work of art? Our answer is, absolutely not. We just couldn't decide what was more important - the art of design or the art of sound.
Jose Romanillos
Romanillos Guitars
Jose Romanillos is a living legend amongst classical guitar builders. Not only is he credited with rediscovering and documenting the majority of the Antonio de Torres guitars known today, but he is also heir to the Torres' tradition and living legacy of the craft of classical luthiery. He is also ... retired.
Gourmet Guitars had the rare opportunity to accompany Jose Romanillos during the construction of his last guitar, a present to his wife and fullfillment of a promise made long ago.
