About Me

My name is Lin Crowson and I love to fix broken guitars. In 1997 I went to Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery to learn how to build and repair them. I've been doing so ever since. I've done repair work in Louisiana, New York, and Tennessee. I presently I work for Gruhn Guitars in Nashville, and run my own Shop (Nashville Guitar E.R.). If you have ANY guitar issues I can help you out. I just recently got into winding custom pickups. I am Fender Gold Certified and have my Luthier Certificate. Drop me a line if I can help ya out! ..
