A very special set of wood I purchased in Japan and carried back in my suitcase. Very similar to European Maple in terms of density and sound. A beautiful figured piece for a fantastic person. Enjoy it Shawn!

Something has been brewing for a while now and we’re excited to announce this and bring it into the mix at our lovely shop in VT…..

After decades of serving the lutherie community, we are pleased to announce that Gurian Instruments is joining Allied Lutherie! This partnership brings together two trusted names in instrument parts supply, combining deep expertise with a shared commitment to quality.

Gurian will begin to transition production from Washington to Vermont in early October, with Gail and Kevin guiding the process to ensure a smooth and faithful handoff. We estimate production to resume in Vermont in early November. Bear in mind that certain complex patterns have longer lead times, so please remember to place all wholesale orders with Gurian well in advance of this transition.

If you are currently a shell inlay/overlay or laser customer with Gurian, your orders will continue to be filled by Kevin and Gail for the time being.

If you have any questions or needs, please reach out to Adam ([email protected]) and Drew ([email protected]) at Allied or Kevin ([email protected]) and Gail ([email protected]) at Gurian.
Stay tuned for more updates as we move forward into this exciting new chapter!

“Life is an excursion! And amidst the ramble you find yourself in a milieu that opens your mind in ways that make your life even more fulfilling. Never in my wildest dreams would I think I’d even play guitar let alone have one made for me especially! But this one is a piece of art, with inflections that make me want to play and never put it down! It’s warm, it’s articulate, and it’s built with songs imprinted all in the beautiful grain of the wood. It’s an honor to work with the genius of Adam Buchwald and the good folks at Circle Strings. What a great start to a beautiful friendship! “ - of

Thank you, Shawn. It’s an honor to work with you!
