There are very few luthiers who really understand playing at the “professional touring level” and “the perfect setup”. Rick is a 2-time GRAMMY Nominee and 8-time IBMA award winning artist who has toured all over North America, the British Isles, Europe and Australia.

Rick can consult on each build by watching a customer's style/approach and understand the micro mechanics of how to achieve the perfect setup and build for each person's needs.

FGC currently offers D (Dreadnought), 12 fret D, Slope shoulder D and OM body styles, built in the pre-war style, by hand, one at a time. These guitars cater to a multitude of styles that demand a strong, balanced and responsive voice in a guitar with great sustain.

Contact Rick at farisguitarco@gmail.com to request info for prices and current availability for build slots and materials. 

Come see the Faris Guitar Co. Shop at the Kentucky Guitar Works Center for Lutherie but make sure to check open hours or message to make an appointment before stopping by, as we have limited open hours to keep building these beauties.
