Trenier Guitars
Hello, and welcome to Trenier guitars homepage. My name is Bryant Trenier, and I am a maker of Archtop guitars. After spending many years as a student of the guitar, I began building musical instruments in 1998, then studied stringed instrument making in the Czech Republic under Ondra Holoubek between 2002 and 2004. I have since returned to the states and set up a small shop in Seattle, Washington.
I make every Trenier guitar completely by hand. Each instrument is made one at a time, with a total of no more than 10 instruments per year. This is the best way for me to work, as it allows me to pay close attention to every detail of the instruments.
When a customer orders a guitar from me, there is an initial consultation and preparation period, where I try to understand the customer’s needs as best as I can, and we establish the materials the guitar will be made from. When physical construction of the instrument begins, I like to spend the entire 6 weeks or so it takes me to make the instrument on that instrument uniquely, allowing me to focus completely on the instrument and the customer.
