There are many luthiers in the world but few could visualize and materialize their visions with such vividness and precision like Mike Doolin. Started as a professional musician, he went into building of guitars after having done many repairs and modifications of guitars. He is base in Portland, Oregon, USA. Check out the exclusive interview with Mike Doolin!

Mike is easily my biggest inspiration. From headstock design to the double cutaway, pînless bridge and neck angle adjustment. My current build is actually a double cutaway based in his design. All of my designs are original and came from scratch, but at the end it does look pretty similar to his guitars. And when it comes to luthiery, he definitely knows what he's talking about. Really nice guy and down to earth, but he is now retired from luthiery
