Stephen Stratton

Stephen has been crafting high quality custom instruments since 1998 when he graduated from the Roberto-Venn School of Lutherie in Phoenix, AZ. Through the years he has worked with the likes of Charles Fox, Saul Koll and many others. Stephen currently builds completely custom instruments in his shop in the beautiful Sacramento Mountains of New Mexico where he lives with his wife (encaustic artist) Layne Stratton and their two dogs Dignan and Mabel.

The Shop

Stratton Guitars is a one man shop. Every instrument is constructed by hand, one at a time. Don’t let your imagination be limited by the instruments shown on these pages. Stratton Guitars is a true custom shop and I thrive on designing and building something completely new with my clients.
