"I own several custom shop Fenders and several PRSs and I've recently shelved them all for Cronk Guitars. I've played custom shop Gibsons and some of the finest guitars on the market and Cronk Guitars are every bit as good. I love that they are 100% hand made, and yet the consistency in quality is amazing. Bryan's custom designs are as versatile an varied as any on the market. I'm a little OCD when it comes to the tone and playabilty of my guitars and Cronk always delivers. That's why they are my first choice in over 300 performances that I will play this year. I would recommend Cronk Guitars to any discriminating guitar player." - Matt Henderson, Lead Guitar for EastonAshe, www.EastonAshe.net

Bryan, Bass is Awesome!  Have had a lot of compliments. I had a setup done on it by a guy who used to be Michael Schenkers tech and he said it was made as well as any he has seen. Jack Bass player for SteelSolace.

Because of Bryan Cronk, founder of Cronk Guitars, I received a beautifully-made
custom guitar. Bryan's patience and dedication to the customer's satisfaction
shines through. My Cronk guitar is great to practice on, especially for a new
musician like myself, because of it's smooth action. This gorgeous guitar
shouldn't just be an at-home guitar though, and holds it's own at a
performance-level. A band member of mine played the Cronk at a show one night
and a staff member from the venue said it was the best-sounding guitar he'd
heard there. I have had many pleasant experiences working with Bryan getting
other products, such as purses, t-shirts, guitar straps, belts, and a
custom-made microphone box. Not only will you be satisfied with the customer
service you'll receive by choosing to work with Cronk Guitars, but you will also
fall in love with that quality of the products.
Thank You Taryn Cross

These guitars are handmade one at a time by woodcarving genius Bryan Cronk. Everything is fit together perfectly. Owning one of these instruments is like buying a piece of fine art. I have owned one of these instruments for over two years and it is my go-to guitar both for practice and recording! The quality of the electronics and the soldering and wiring is very well done, even though most people would never even take off the cover to see it. The action and playability are out of this world. You would have to play it yourself to believe how great the hand shaped neck feels in your hand. Get one soon, the waiting list sure to grow as word gets out about these handcrafted beauties!

I started high school at Ferndale High when I was fourteen going on fifteen. I already had a number of years experience playing the guitar, and was my main passion at the time, and remains so today. I had one year of formal lessons when I was a kid, but I never really caught the guitar fever until a couple of years later, when I started learning bass as well. I would sit for hours on end learning the songs that I loved listening to and immediately I was hooked. I know nothing of reading music or music theory, but there was an amazing feeling that accompanied the sounds I could create with my own two hands and this beautiful instrument.
    At this point the thought of creating my own guitar had never even occurred to me, but when I sat down in class one day of my freshmen year, I was told I was going to have to come up with a project in order to graduate. Immediately, I knew what I wanted to do, I was going to attempt to build my own guitar. This project had certain requirements to pass, but I was determined to make it all fit somehow. However, that wasn't the hardest part as I soon came to realize that I knew nothing about wood working, let alone building a complex and beautiful instrument. So for the next couple of years, I spent much of my free time researching and thinking about what the instrument would look and sound like, and how I was going to manage to build even a functioning guitar on my own.
    That's where Mr. Bryan Cronk came in. My senior year had come and the senior project was now nearing the deadline. I needed to get started and I still didn't have a clue how I was to achieve this goal. I needed a project advisor, and a couple days of research later, I got Mr. Cronk's number. This was the most important time of the entire project, and it couldn't have turned out better. We met and discussed what we were going to do and everything was set. I now had the place, tools, supplies and the experience (all thanks to Bryan) I needed to produce a masterpiece. All that had to be done was the actual project.
    Immediately after starting the project with Mr. Cronk, I knew that if I had not been able to work with him the project would have gone horribly wrong. Through his guidance, I was introduced to all the tricks of the trade he had figured out himself through many projects of his own. Much of what I learned I would never have been able to figure out in the short amount of time I had left, so he would show me the techniques he used every step of the way and was very patient. He was a perfect advisor for the project, he showed me exactly what I needed to do and what it would look like when finished. It was never him doing the project for me, he would give a demonstration of what to do and then allowed me to do the best I could with it, making it a very pleasurable learning experience.
    I honestly can't be thankful enough for the help Mr. Cronk gave me throughout this entire project. I almost had to find another culminating project, but with his help, I had one of the most influential experiences of my life, and I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. I now have a beautiful work of art hanging on my wall; a guitar that I will keep with me for the rest of my life. I own a small collection of guitars I've accumulated over many years, but only one I can say is this personal, the only one I can say I built from scratch every time someone walks into the room and immediately asks "where did you get this one?"
