Tony Vines
Acoustic Guitars
Offering individually handcrafted acoustic guitars for over 30 years.
My Approach
Hello, My name is Tony Vines. I have been making guitars for most of my life.
As I grow older my intuitive approach to guitar making has been been tuned and refined by the shared pursuit of excellence and knowledge within the Luthier community. Now it's 2024...my offerings are simple, guitars with good bass, clear mids, clear trebles and feels great in your hands.
My premium offerings include; My "SL" model which is a 14 fret to body "OO" size body, my CX model featuring a 15.25 lower bout and 25.5 scale and my 12 fret to body Colorado model with a 14 inch lower bout. Premium offerings start at $15,000.00 with a Calton Case.
I am also offering the well known SJ model which features new woods such as Brazilian Ebony, Brown Ebony, Wenge, and other modern alternative tonewoods. Featuring a one piece Mahogany neck and an Ameritage hardshell case the SJ is offered at $8000.00 with limited options.
I am grateful for the gift of creativity and the opportunity to explore such a gracious offering from God to my life. My hope is to pass along the blessing to you as I offer my guitars to those who love art and music. Additionally, I am passionate about music composition in which some of my musical endeavors can be heard on my music site www.tonyvinesmusic.com (coming soon)
Keep an eye on the vinesguitars.com website for new builds and available guitars. Thank you for visiting the site.
