Schaefer Guitars:

Welcome to Schaefer Custom Guitars! I've been handcrafting guitars since the early 1970's. As a small family-run shop, I focus on the customer's needs from the musician / player's point of view, and every detail from nut width to choice of wood involves the customer's input.

Each "model" is only a starting place for the ultimate design of each instrument. Standard construction features include: select aged tone woods, hand-carved, tap tuned top and back, and a high gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish.

(See The Models for more details.)
