Don Grosh began his journey with Valley Arts, a famous guitar building shop in North Hollywood, California. Don and that team created guitars for such elite musicians as Larry Carlton, Steve Lukather, Jay Graydon, Lee Sklar, Vince Gill, Lee Ritenour and many others. Don remembers those times fondly, “Working with players of that caliber taught me a ton about dealing with very particular clients!”
Don started Don Grosh Custom Guitars in 1993 with a very clear vision—to build hand-crafted custom guitars with the best tone, looks and playability available, and to build them from the from the ground up, from original design and concept to full production of the necks and bodies. The first three guitars built were Grosh-designed variations of a T shape: a Retro Classic Vintage T, a Flat Top Custom T with humbuckers and an Electric Classical nylon string. Later, an Electric Classical would find it’s way into the hands of multi-platinum and multi-Grammy award winner Brian McKnight.
In 2005, with an eye on the future of the company, Don began searching for the ideal place to continue to grow the company and build a team. With family in Colorado, Don made the decision to relocate his family and the business to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Broomfield Colorado, just outside of Denver. In August 2005, Don acquired the current shop in Broomfield, Colorado just outside of Denver in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and started building the team that would take Grosh Guitars to the next level.
Today Grosh Guitars is building guitars, basses and pickups at the highest quality level ever achieved. Don is still the driving force in the shop everyday, but now he has a team and a facility that is capable of creating more magical instruments with world class tone and old world craftsmanship. Grosh Guitars offers many different guitar, bass and pickup models that are all customizable and created from the ground up one at a time. Some things never change.
