Hand Built
Archtop Guitars
A focused body of work. Each instrument built one at a time in the workshop of Ryan Thorell.
Red Sky — The Acoustic Archtop
The acoustic voice of the workshop. Fully carved, individually graduated, and tuned by hand for balance, projection, and clarity.
Built to move air, respond to touch, and hold together across the full range of the instrument.
A carved archtop doing exactly what it is supposed to do.
From $15,800
Cooker — The Modern Performance Archtop
Developed for amplified performance. Focused, controlled, and fast under the hands.
Built so the instrument itself shapes the amplified result—not just the electronics.
Clarity, consistency, and control on stage.
From $13,800
Custom Atelier — Commissioned Instruments
A limited body of work developed through direct collaboration.
Each project is considered individually. Not all commissions are undertaken.
Built as singular instruments, resolved one at a time.
