Handmade Archtop Guitars


   

FOUNDED IN 2005

The Archtop Guitar

Smocke Guitars was founded 19 years ago with the intent to craft fine archtop guitars.

Today, Dan Smocke, continues to craft archtops the same way he did in the beginning: one guitar, one craftsman, one signature.

Dan’s guitars are guided by his mission to build archtops that celebrates the natural beauty and sound of fine tonewood, crafted for a long useful life as a musical instrument.

Without Dan’s considerable attention to detail, commitment, and love for the craft, Smocke Guitars would be just another guitar company.
