Tim Eberhardt

Tim Eberhardt has been in love since he saved and bought his first guitar from Sears as a teenager. He honed his musicianship through hours of practice on favorite songs by popular artists, folk music, and church music. He appreciated the guitar for its ability to bring people together in song, and to accompany his own developing voice. Eventually, and after much research, Tim bought his first Martin guitar, choosing it particularly for its sound and ease of play.

Fast forward a number of years, and Tim has developed a critical eye for hardwoods and fine workmanship in old furniture. He began refinishing items he found in garage sales and front porches, filling his home with rejuvenated buffets, tables, chests and even a grand piano. His growing knowledge of woods and finishing materials dovetailed with his developing expertise at repairing old and building new furniture. His regard for the beauty, function and construction of fine wood furniture naturally extended to acoustic instruments, and particularly to the instrument he played. He became interested in the possibility of building a guitar. A "kit" of materials and blueprints from Martin became his segue into the world of luthiery, with a local college class providing initial guidance. Thus began a 20 year career dedicated to the mastery of crafting fine acoustic guitars.

An Eberhardt guitar looks beautiful, has exceptional sound quality, and is easy to play. Tim works to fine-tune his instruments both visually and acoustically to his own and his client's satisfaction. Through his guitars, Tim and his client become partners in bringing fine music to the world.
