Trained and certified by Jon LeVan at Guitar Services Workshop in Nashville, I bring great attention to detail to each instrument. I am a working guitarist and musician myself and know what to look for in the feel of a guitar and what it takes to bring that mojo back to your favorite instrument. I am dedicated to getting your guitar playing and sounding great at a price that fits your budget.

John Krupa
​Owner | Luthier | Musician

I started playing guitar at the age of 12 and was always fascinated by how they worked. A guitar teacher and mentor of mine encouraged me to study the craft of instrument repair and restoration. He said that dedicating time and study to luthier work is something I would never regret. He was right!

I love working to bring an instrument to its fullest potential. While I enjoy doing basic setups, standard adjustments, and installations, I’m often presented with unique problems that require thinking outside of the box. It’s the unique models, odd breaks, and hard to reach repairs that make luthier work challenging and rewarding.

As a musician, I get that the feel and tone of an instrument is unique to each player. As a luthier, my goal is to help each player achieve the feel of a custom fit.
