Welcome To JDS Guitars!
Each JDS guitar receives an extraordinary amount of attention due to the fact each and every guitar is "hand-made". We're not talking about "hand-assembled".  Each JDS guitar is meticously crafted from the finest tonewoods.  Every guitar top is tuned by hand to attain maximum resonance and sustain, ensuring a high level of consistency of sound within each instrument. The balance, tone, and volume of earch JDS guitar is created before the guitar is strung. Because we are a small shop,  born from a genuine love of the guitar, we craft fine instruments that not only are a pleasure to play, but are appealing to the eye .

 


 

 

  
What others say...

 I have been playing for 20 years and have owned  some beautiful guitars. I have owned Avalon, Martin and Guild guitars and this guitar is the equal to all and better than some.

Bob Smith - Kansas City, Mo

 

I was torn between buying a high-end Martin or commissioning a custom guitar.   I chose to have Jerry build me a top-of-the-line dreadnought.  I have never been sorry! This guitar cuts through a jam session with the best of them.  I call it my banjo killer!
