About:

A Little History

I am very proud of the lineage from whom my luthier skills were derived.

In 1964 master luthier Edgar Munch arrived in Canada from Germany. It was in Toronto that Jean Claude Larrivee met Munch and worked with him for two years on a part time basis before turning to full time building in 1968. Sergei de Jonge was one of Jean Larrivee's first apprentices and has established a reputation of his own as a luthier and teacher.

It is from Sergei's knowledge of guitarmaking that my development as a luthier has grown.

About My Guitars

I build guitars that range from my concert quality classical (the C-49) to a number of performance acoustic steel-string guitars.  My steel-string guitars range from a wide body (not quite jumbo) Signature model, to a very narrow body parlour guitar (also available in a classical nylon string version).  In between is my L-49, a powerful OM style and the S-45, a small body guitar with exceptional volume. My P-49 is a concert model steel-string with the same body outline of my classical C-49. The D-49, a dreadnought with big sound, rounds out my present model listing.
