Michael Greenfield

Michael Greenfield is passionate about tone. Great tone. FAT tone. Squeezing every last molecule of tone out of his instruments. Prior to making the commitment to build full-time in the mid 90’s, Michael spent some 20 years repairing and restoring vintage instruments. He has also been a player for over 40 years. So perfect feel, set-up, buttery-smooth playability and road-worthy stability are what his instruments are all about.

It is Michael’s philosophy that a truly extraordinary instrument is the result of the meticulous selection of the finest woods, materials and careful construction; along with a clear vision of the end result and a consistency of skills and techniques throughout.

Michael carefully handcrafts 14-16 exquisite acoustic guitars (Archtop, Steel String and Concert Classical Guitars) each year in his Montréal shop. His guitars address the needs of traditional and contemporary players of all musical styles. Michael’s goal is that you be thrilled, not merely satisfied, with your new guitar!

Michael currently enjoys an international reputation of crafting some of the finest guitars available. Some recent clients of profile include Pierre Bensusan, Andy McKee, Brooke Miller, Charlie Hunter, Pat Martino, Keith Richards, Don Alder, Joe Finn, Melissa Greener, Emmanuel Rossfelder and Philippe Mariotti (protégé of Alexandre Lagoya).
