McPherson Guitars

McPherson Guitars was founded in the late 1990s by Matt McPherson in Sparta, Wisconsin, with a vision to innovate acoustic guitar design. Known for its high-end, custom-built instruments, McPherson introduced groundbreaking features like the offset soundhole, cantilevered neck, and unique bracing system, all enhancing resonance, sustain, and tonal clarity.

In 2014, McPherson expanded into carbon fiber guitars, applying the same design principles to create durable, weather-resistant instruments. Beyond guitars, Matt McPherson is also the founder of Mathews Archery, reflecting his dedication to engineering excellence across industries.

Each guitar is meticulously built from exotic tonewoods and crafted to exacting standards, with appointments that blend visual beauty and sonic precision. McPherson later expanded into the carbon fiber market, introducing travel-friendly models that retain the brand’s signature tone even in extreme environments.
