Ryan Guitars: makes me wish I could play...
In a past life, long ago, I dated Barb Ryan of Ryan Guitars. I was in high school then, and I knew both the clear-minded go-getter Barb, and her now husband/partner, the thoughtful artisan Kevin, who was at that time playing in a band called "Psalmistry." (No use looking them up on Google: the name is being used by several other organizations, and none are the band I'm talking about, long since retired.)
But knowing them as I did, however long ago, I could not help but be interested when I learned they were both entrepreneurs, shipping handmade guitars to order. So besides writing Barb and finding out they were both OK -- well, better than OK, actually -- I took the online shop tour. It's pretty compelling: a cross between fine art and detail engineering. I especially like the way Ryan Guitars assumes its customers understand the guitar-making process. Maybe we don't ALL understand FULLY, but we can pick up enough to appreciate the attention to detail and their respect of sound shop methods.
Is a custom guitar in your future? There's where to go to get it! :-)
