Hello fellow guitar lovers!

Thanks for coming to my website and for your interest in my guitars. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been obsessed with instruments. I grew up with them in the house and always had something in my hand to bang around with and make noise. Like many guitar players, I was obsessed with browsing through all of the different models, brands, and options that would just seem to be endless. Twenty years ago, the thought of making instruments seemed too far-fetched and wasn’t even on my radar.

After a life-changing road trip across America in 2012, I was fortunate enough to land myself a job at Musikraft, a licensed by Fender parts manufacturer in New Jersey. In 2016, I attended Galloup School of Lutherie to strengthen my knowledge in the craft. In 2018, I moved to Michigan to work for Mule Resophonic Guitars where I rose to become the production manager. With over a decade of experience, I have developed a well-rounded repertoire of skills to carry out my designs.

Shea Guitars is the immense effort and obsession of the last 20 years of my life. Every guitar I make means the absolute world to me. From the very first jointer pass, to dialing in perfect intonation, I believe you can see how much I care about these instruments through my work.
