Thanks for stopping by my Wicklund Guitars website. I have been handcrafting acoustic guitars since 1986, first in my home shop in Northfield Vermont, then in 2016 on to a shared woodworking shop in the South End Arts District of Burlington Vermont. While there I had the chance to mentor a friend, Bruce Parizo, in the building of his dream guitar. Bruce is still making finely crafted custom acoustic guitars and ukuleles at Parizona Guitars in his home shop in Underhill Vermont.
In 2020 I closed shop in Burlington and moved to my current home in Grantham, New Hampshire. I'm now in my final chapter of my luthierie journey. In the next few months I'll be finishing up my last two guitar projects that will be my final personal guitars to keep. After almost 40 years of guitar building I decided to move on to other creative activities.
I'm going to keep the website active for at least the rest of this year as a record of the projects that I have done. Visit my Archives page to see the past guitars and ukuleles that came out of the Wicklund Guitars shop. Also check out these two interesting videos that directly compare the sound of five if my past guitars, and if you like, please send me a note through my Contact page or a comment on my YouTube channel and let me know which of those guitars sounded the best for you.
Thanks to all the guitarists who purchased a Wicklund Guitar, and everyone who visited my website. Your support was greatly appreciated.
Make it a great day. -- Peter Wicklund
