John Greenwald

Retired eff 3/31/26. Computer nerd and exec who wandered aimlessly thru a business career. Chauncy Gardiner was my mentor. Founding member of Sweaty Fat Ugly Guys band. Wrote and recorded an album that was released on Spotify/Tidal/Apple and have 3 monthly followers. Odd, because I have 5 members in my family. Been tinkering or building guitars for years but more focused lately. Took two training events, one w Sully in Texas and the other with Galloup in Big Rapids. Enjoyed them both. I was influenced by incredible design philosophies when I worked at Herman Milller and have zeroed in on a body and neck design that I want to build. Also, part of my goal is to donate instruments to kids who cannot afford them.
