Don Gallagher - US

"In some ways as I think back over the past thirty-five years, it seems like a very long time ago when we first started making guitars. What has made this business so special over the years are all the people we have had the pleasure of making instruments for.
Our guitar making is not just a business, it is a way of life. We take a lot of pride in what we do, and we hope we are making instruments today that can be enjoyed for many years to come.
We hope you enjoy the pictures of our shop."

Here is a Mandolins builder workshop, i liked this B/W picture as it captures the space and the workspace of the luthier in its essence.
