Mark Brumitt, Luthier

​​Call me Mark.   
I am currently building and repairing guitars in Richmond Va. I 
have been doing this for many years having first opened my own 
repair shop in 1990.
I apprenticed in a boat joinery shop in the late 1970`s, where I 
received a good background in fine woodworking.  I feel this 
gives me a unique insight in the qualities of wood, glue, and other 
materials.  I always have done guitar repair on the side, so it was 
a natural transition to Luthiery.
I have been playing the guitar for over 40 years, having studied 
with many great players including Jerry Fields.  I gig occasionally, 
playing Jazz and classical,  among other styles.  Recently I have 
played the Jefferson Hotel in Richmond and the Mayflower in DC.
I am very dedicated to my craft and a good job is very important 
to me.  I hope I will be able to help you with your instrument.
I am a member of GAL(Guild of American Luthiers)
