Our story...
The roots of GCG stretch all the way back to 1992 when Paul Giroux, our chief designer built his first solid body in his uncle’s workshop. This was followed by a twenty-five year break for fine furniture commissions, but the love of lutherie never went away.
A few decades later, while playing in a local group, Paul met three musicians: Cal O’Connor, Josh Pilles, and Ryan Harrier. After a few jam sessions, the idea for Giroux Custom Guitars was born.
Our first production run came from a truckload of bowling lanes that were dropped on Paul’s doorstep. At a loss for what to do with so much recycled lumber, he began slicing and arranging until a pattern jumped out.
It took some time to dial in the process, but we knew we were on to something special.
We crafted our first Mosaic Line bodies and sold them to other builders, but as word spread and demand grew, we began crafting in-house necks for complete builds.
We went on to create two runs of Mosaics, 45 guitars in all, which by now bore a host of domestic and exotic hardwoods in ever-more-complex patterns. We followed up the Mosaics with the Reserve Line. The Reserve bodies are lighter, draped in polished lacquer, and capped front and back with shimmering tiger maple, rich zebrawood, and fiery goncalo alves.
We’re excited to grow as more people fall in love with our work, and we can’t wait to custom build the guitar of your dreams!
