"Coming from a furniture making and boat building background I felt I had enough skills to build a good guitar. My first guitar was a kit from Martin Guitar Co. When I received the kit I realized it wasn't going to be a "paint by numbers" project. I wanted to make a perfect guitar. I proceeded to educate myself with every bit of information from books that I could find on the subject to people who would lend a hand. 4-5 months later I started my guitar and it turned out great, at least I thought so. Friends began to ask me if I would build guitars for them. Word spread, and I found that more and more of my time was taken up with building and repairing guitars. This eventually led to the creation of the Tippin Guitar Company" ……
Bill has designed and built his own guitars since 1978. Each Tippin guitar is constructed with individually selected woods, the finest hardware, and is made to Tippin's exacting standards. The basic Tippin guitar is a graceful traditional design crafted with patience and care, and is proportionally balanced. The learning process never ends: each guitar benefits from the ones that have gone before it. Bill and his crew consistently produce an optimal sound with each beautifully crafted instrument, one that anyone would be proud to own.
