Retrograde Guitars is not your typical guitar production company. I am a singular builder, running a small, one person workshop. I currently create between 15-18 guitars a year.

My most recent work can be purchased through local Boston area guitar dealer, The Music Emporium. Please contact them directly at www.themusicemporium.com for availability and incoming models. For up to date pictures of incoming models before they hit the showroom, you can follow @retrograde_guitars on Instagram.

I also reserve a limited number of build slots a year for those who wish to work directly with me to design a personal Retrograde Guitar.
If you have an idea or vision of your Retrograde Guitar, please email retrogradeguitars@gmail.com for information on the current waitlist.

The 2024 Private Build waitlist is currently closed. 🪐 I am sincerely grateful for the overwhelming interest and support. 🪐 Thank you.

Thank you for your interest in Retrograde Guitars,

Glenn Nichols
