Reviews

Jeremy is very knowledgeable , Has a great Shop, I have brought several guitars over, all of then needed work, from fixing my old Martin, acoustic, to my electric ones, wasn’t even a challenge for him!

Fiscally sound

Great attention to detail and awesome price. Brought in 2 guitars to be set up. Excellent job and very fast.

Amazing custom guitar

I purchased body parts and components and Algonquin Lutheriers did the rest. I gave him some basic directions and picked it up later. It is so good and sounds so great. I felt like a million dollars.

I took this guitar it to install active pickups. It sounds better than I hoped. Thanks

Great service locally

I used to drive into the city to get work done on my basses but Im glad I don't have to do that anymore. Algonquin Luthiers is 20 minutes away.
