Brian Michael
Repair Staff
(Mon. thru Sat. except Fri.)
Brian is our Chief Repair guy. As a youngster in New Hampshire he had a natural affinity for playing guitar. Being a hands-on sort of fellow he spent many a youthful afternoon setting up, modifying and repairing his own instruments. He moved west to Phoenix to attend the Roberto-Venn School of Lutherie. We heard he was the best in his class so after graduating in 2003 he answered Frank's call and came even further west to work at Gryphon.
When not at Gryphon, Brian builds electric guitars and basses in his home shop, and also plays bass with the band Careless Hearts. As if he didn't have enough to do, he is a recent first-time father and son Ely is already straining to get to his tools.
