This web site provides historical and current information about my instrument building. Over the course of 35 years, I have built under the names of Charles F Morrison, Morrison Guitar corp. and Flatiron Mandolins. I have built Classical, Acoustic, and Arch top guitars, Hammered Dulcimers, Mandolins and a few others I can't remember.

Read about the true story of Lutherie HERE . Well, I think it's the true history. It's hard to tell what is truth and what is fiction.

To receive my newsletter, please sign up here: Newsletter sign-up . This is a low traffic newsletter with just a few emails per year telling what my upcoming projects are, what (if any) instruments are available for sale and whatever might be on my mind at the time.

NEW! Photos and content from my April 2010 Boulder Guitar Society presentation on Instrument makers of the 1970s, in and around Boulder County Colorado  Anyone interested in Great instruments by great makers will be interested in this resource. There is a lot more here than we were able to cover at the meeting.

 "WOW! I can't believe I finally found your web-site! I purchased my Morrison acoustic, (#30), @ 3 years ago from a local music store here in Glenwood Springs. I LOVE this guitar! The sound is amazing, the craftsmanship is awesome!
Having grown up in Boulder, I am very familiar with NBN and the music scene there at that time. I have owned so many guitars of all brands and prices, this guitar is the finest!
So glad to see you are building again! I am looking for another Morrison piece. So, I will be in touch periodically to see about your guitars for sale.
 
Good to finally find you!!
 
Happily playing my Morrison,
 
Dave Hill"
