Lawrence K Smith

I began making musical instruments in 1977, in 1989 I decided it was time I turned professional and devote all my time to making fine quality Guitars & Mandolins.

Since then I have been involved in making a broad range of stringed instruments, such as Lutes ,Charangos, Vihuelas , Classic Guitars, Electric & Acoustic Guitars and Mandolins for a broad range of clients. I take pride in producing instruments which display both acoustic excellence and visual beauty. My aim is to produce the finest instruments possible utilising the knowledge of construction and acoustics I have acquired over the years.

As a Player, I set very high standards for all my instruments. Being a player has given me the knowledge and understanding to judge them for tone and playability.

I search out and select the finest timbers available from Australia andaround the World for my instruments. I tune the modes of the sound board and air cavities of my instruments to optimise their acoustic potential.

Currently I am involved in making the range of guitars and mandolins listed. Please browse and enjoy my pages, if you have any questions E-mail me and I will try to answer them.

All my instruments are backed by a Lifetime Warranty and Satisfaction Guarantee. I stand by what I sell !!!!!

    Hi! I am looking for a songbook or instruction book on how to play the vihuela. I am having trouble finding anything on the vihuela. I read that you also make vihuelas – how much do you sell them for? I am looking forward to a response from you. Thank you. Melissa
