After finishing some guitar work for Linda Withers, we asked that she pay it forward with a donation to Lancaster County Animal Shelter SC— the same shelter where we adopted Jaxx, Head of Security at Koenke Guitars 🎸 ❤️🐶 We’re grateful for the support of a cause that means so much to us. If you’re considering adding a furry friend to your family, please consider adoption.

Thanks for your trust and kind words, Linda!
“After doing some research I decided to get Steve to setup my new Telecaster. He did a great job. It plays much easier. I would recommend him to anyone.”

Scott Oliver stopped by to pick up his Taylor acoustic after a partial refret and fitted bone saddle install. After handing it over, he strummed a few chords to make sure the fretwork felt just right. Nothing better than seeing a happy player reconnect with their guitar and hearing an instrument come alive again. 🎸

Music to a luthier’s ears 🎶👂🎸Justin A. brought in his Telecaster for a setup, and after getting it back, he wrote:

“Steve is fantastic! He is incredibly responsive and transparent about the timeline and cost from the start. I brought my Telecaster in for a setup, and it came back looking beautiful and singing—it plays better than it ever has. Steve is clearly knowledgeable; I actually walked away learning a few new things about my own guitar. I highly recommend him and will definitely be returning for any future work.”

Helping players reconnect with their guitars is what it’s all about. Thanks for the kind words and trust, Justin. ❤️👍

🎸 Another guitar brought back to life at Koenke Guitars 🔥

Steve Koenke fixed an intermittent neck pickup and installed a brand new wiring harness with Mojotone vintage audio taper pots, Switchcraft selector switch & output jack, and an Orange Drop capacitor. 🤘What started as an overly complicated wiring setup is now a smooth, gig-ready rock ’n’ roll machine. Excited to know Jake Wright of Crystal Aria is reunited with his guitar and ready for the stage! 🎸😎

PUSHH was on fire last night 🔥 High energy, packed dance floor, and the perfect way to kick off the weekend. So fun watching Tom Demartino in his element, absolutely crushing it on electric guitar. Equally surprised and impressed by his vocals too. 🎤🎸
