Alan Dunwell has been building instruments since
his teens and doing so professionally since 1994. Current emphasis
is on acoustic flat top guitars and F-style mandolins.
Alan brings his hard science background into the
building process while maintaining the tradition of hand builders
and precision woodworking. All tops and backs are hand plate tuned
using Chladni modes and tap tuning to bring out the best in each
assembled instrument. Alan formed and is the current head of the
Colorado Luthier Group. He is a member of the Guild of American
Luthier and the Association of Stringed Instrument Artisans.
