Official Luthiers Forum!

I am in Germany now... I just want to see if it's feasable to build guitars here, so I am wondering is there any luthier suppliers in Europe?

Hi Tai Fu !

I'm french and I bought a lot of tools and tonewood in Europe, and particulary in Germany...

For tools :
www.dick.biz

For tonewood :

www.espen.de
http://www.holz-faszination.de/home/index.php (expensive, but gorgeous wood)
http://www.designholz.com/ (the paradise if you can resaw the wood)

And there is a lot more... don't forget to search on ebay.de too...

See ya !
