My name is Brooks Cobb. I started building custom guitars in college in 1996. My curiosity of music and wood has carried me down this path, and has pushed me to create art that I hope is inspiring on many levels. Not just to players, but to those who appreciate fine curves and rare woods, and those who welcome bold yet old world craftsmanship. This is what drives me to create. A passion for an intimate connection between a unique, individual personality and an equally unique but well paired instrument . As a player I seek that connection, as a builder I want to share that connection with you.
I currently reside in Bluffton SC, where I solely run all of BCG production from my shop. I have a long history with this area. I have worked as a carpenter; have spent many years in a woodshop building cabinets and furniture. I’ve also spent two years working as a repair tech at the biggest music store in Alaska. My time spent at the music store was crucial to refine my skills but also in affirming that my guitars had something to offer that factory built guitars simply could never have. a selection and care process that is not possible on a mass production scale guitar model.
