We built our 200th guitar for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. This definitely ranks among the cooler guitars we will ever build!

"The craftsmanship of the Rockbridge Guitar is exceptional. Its flawless build and brilliant sound encase some of the finest tones to be heard in a new guitar today."

“My brazialian/adirondack Rockbridge is the perfect mix of bright and crisp with lots of chunk and thickness to the tone. It's continually the guitar I reach for and the tone I hear in my head. The Rockbridge guitars are all really balanced and consistent, with great fit and finish. Not to mention the builders are great people too."
Larry Keel
One of our very earliest guitars was built for flatpicking monster Larry Keel, here’s what he had to say “I was amazed with how full and clean it sounded when it was brand-spankin new. Now after just this little amount of time it's already putting out seasoned, rich tones and volume. I'm looking forward to a lifetime of growing with this guitar"
Jesse Harper
“I've been playing Rockbridge Guitars for almost five years now. My two main criteria for a great guitar are playability and tone- Rockbridge Guitars are consistently the best guitars I have ever played or heard... and they look great too!! I'll always play a Rockbridge"
Sam Wilson
"Rockbridge guitars have equal parts playability, tone, and soul. Not to mention they are visually beautiful. Recording engineers are always stunned at how wonderful my rockbridge sounds."

"When I was looking for a second guitar to compliment my 1942 Gibson J-45 ‘bannerhead’, I turned to Brian and Randall at Rockbridge guitars. The reason was simple – these guys build really amazing, true modern vintage guitars. When I finally got the guitar, I was just blown away by the looks alone, but when I played it, well, it is simply the best new guitar I have ever played, period. I can only imagine what it will sound like in the years to come.
As a side note, the guitar was so good in fact, that the very day I had it delivered to the studio, I used it on 2 tracks on the upcoming Tim McGraw CD. Of the few great vintage guitars I own and love, this Rockbridge slope shoulder guitar is every bit as good as my ‘old girls’, and I am proud to play this work of art from the hands of Brian and Randall. Thanks guys!"
Dan Miller
"This is one of the best sounding new guitars I've ever played." (editor of "Flatpicking Magazine") talking about the Brazilian rosewood and red spruce dreadnaught.
Beppe Gambetta
"My Rockbridge guitar is a modern interpretation of a traditional idea. It has the old solid sound projected in the future with great innovations."
