Company Description

As a seasoned guitarist with many years of guitar repair experience under my belt, I’ve seen many things go wrong with a guitar. But it never gets old, and I love this craft—which is why I founded The Guitar Repair Company. I studied at the Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery, but have been immersed in the guitar repair and retail industry for most of my life. During this time I have had the privilege of servicing well over 4,000 instruments. I have developed the desire to not only do exceptional work but to also help guitar players understand how that service would affect the instrument and its playability.

Sean Bowers is a superior luthier; not just in expertise but in his interaction with his clients. Sean gives that little extra in every aspect. Before he begins work on a guitar, he takes the time needed to be clear on the customer's objectives for the instrument and makes recommendations to help ensure that the guitar is the best it can be. He clearly explains the work that he'll be doing (or has done), and the reasons for it. I learn a few things from him every time I do business with him. In this day and age, it's really refreshing to deal with a truly competent pro like Sean.

Sean offered exactly what I was looking for to repair a very old guitar. He was upfront about the potential work that needed done, and most of all I could tell he was passionate about his craft. The result exceeded expectations and I will definitely use him again in the future.

Sean is one of very few people I would trust with guitar work. He has a comprehensive understanding of the guitar and is able to explain technical things in a way that's easy to understand. Nice guy too!

Sean has worked on my guitars for a little over two years since I relocated back from San Francisco to Columbus. Without question, Sean is one of the most talented and detail oriented luthiers I have ever met. He’s seriously that good. Whether your a pro, hobbyist, or just starting out, you need to go to see Sean and hear what he has to say about your axe and what he recommends for your play style. There are others in town that are okay, but really, Sean is head and shoulders above every other luthier I’ve worked with in Columbus : )

Sean did an amazing job with a custom nut replacement and set up on my Gibson. Wonderful action and a joy to play. Highly recommend Sean for his craftsmanship, attention to detail, and professionalism. Thanks Sean!
