The North American Guitar is delighted to have been appointed to represent the work of legendary luthier Michael Greenfield (Montreal QC).

During his time in London as guest of honour at our first anniversary celebrations Michael and I recorded the following interview which deals with a variety of subjects from vintage guitars, Moon Spruce, fanfrets, CNC, soundports, 5-star cookery and Brazilian Rosewood to the current "golden age" of lutherie and its future.

Huge thanks to Michael for his time and enthusiasm despite a gruelling, jet-lagged week, and also to Melissa Greener for her professional opinion and music!
