Hi, I’m Jeff Bamburg
My guitars are played by some of today's most talented musicians. The adjustable cantilevered neck design has been a proven performer for almost two decades. In addition to to custom instruments, my successful line of artisan crafted Rocky Mountain Guitars, have gained popularity with working musicians and collectors alike. I also offer semi private classes at the Rocky Mountain School of Lutherie located in historic Salida, Colorado. In this course I guide you step by step through the building process.
