Custom hand-built guitars

My Grandfather, John Vroom Jr.  learned lutherie from the well-known experimental luthier Carleen Hutchins.  Specializing in Violas, he established the Vroom brand in the 1970's from his tiny attic atelier. His instruments are still enjoyed today by musicians around the world.

As a guitar player, with a background in mechanical engineering and woodworking, there was a clear path leading me to guitar making.  After studying with renowned luthier Dennis Macpherson, I've been able to continue the family tradition.  Using tools handed down through generations I build guitars that are one of a kind, one at a time.
