Joel Stehr Guitars Joel Stehr is an rapidly rising star in the world of North American luthiery. I met him in California in 2011 and was very impressed with his enthusiasm and skill, and his guitars. He is mostly self-taught with some valuable input from others, emphasising creativity, design and craftsmanship. He says "Making a guitar requires technical expertise and intuition; it is never merely a mathematical or scientific process. I build what feels right to me, allowing my senses and instincts to guide me to a finished instrument." There you have it. Training alone won't get you there, neither will intuition without some technical knowledge. |
