Hand Crafted Guitars by
Master Craftsman Toru Nittono
|
|
Toru began building guitars while working for a guitar factory in Japan during the 70's. In 1981 he moved to Los Angeles where he maintained a repair and custom building business and acquired valuable knowledge by working on large numbers of vintage instruments, and repairing and maintaining instruments for several big name artists, such as Robben Ford, John Pisano, and Ted Greene. Since opening his own shop in 2000, Toru has been offering his own line of arched top instruments as well as his signature series of “Model-T” instruments which are small, hollow/semi-hollow guitars that feature hand-carved maple or spruce arched top, including the Jazz Electric Nylon Model which Santana recently chose to play on tour. All of his instruments have an elegant design and several player-friendly innovations.
