Are you looking for a handmade guitar?
My name is Bengt Wälivaara and I am a guitar maker living in Linköping, Sweden. As a material engineer with a PhD in Physics, my lifelong passion for wood working, design and music has led me into professional guitar making. I offer individually customized and handcrafted guitars, both acoustic and electric. All instruments are made in my one-man workshop in Linköping using specialized fixtures and tools. A combined use of eye and hand with modern machines result in artistry and high precision.
A central part of my guitar building is to ensure the following quality features:
- High acoustic response, clarity of tone and a long sustain
- High playing comfort
- Durability and easy maintenance

**At present I am afraid I cannot offer service and repair due to time constraints**
