Preston Thompson Guitars continues to honor the legacy of master guitar luthier, Preston Thompson. Discovered by bluegrass virtuosos Charles Sawtelle and Peter Rowan in the 1980s, Preston built a reputation for handmade, original vintage style guitars based closely on the measurements and sound quality of those golden era steel string guitars.
Today, from their workshop in the music-loving town of Sisters, Oregon they build custom guitars and standard models based on the best American-made guitars from the 1930’s. The choice of Grammy-winning flatpick and fingerstyle guitarists alike, Preston Thompson Guitars are among the best acoustic guitars available anywhere, renowned for superior tone, craftsmanship and materials.
