Fairbanks Guitars

Dale Fairbanks builds vintage-inspired flat-tops one at a time in Burlington, Vermont, where his shop shares a roof with Circle Strings and Iris Guitars. A Berklee-trained musician turned luthier, he has spent two decades chasing the elusive "thing" that pre-war small-body Gibsons have — the L-00, L-1, Nick Lucas, J-35 and J-45 — and building what he calls the best modern reproductions of the coolest guitars ever made: featherweight, period-voiced instruments with a dry, punchy, country-blues bark. Low volume, high demand, effectively all built to order.

Eddie's Guitars

Eddie's Guitars is a family-owned shop in Historic Maplewood, Missouri — founded by Ed Putney in 1971 and now operated alongside his son Nathan. Their boutique acoustic catalog runs deep across the modern canon, with particular strength in Bourgeois Custom Shop, Collings, Santa Cruz, Atkin, Goodall, Huss & Dalton, and Froggy Bottom. The shop operates by appointment only, delivering a private demo experience for serious players and collectors.
