Our Story

McPherson Guitars is a high-end, custom guitar shop located in Sparta, WI, USA. In the late 1990s, Matt McPherson began pursuing a revolutionary acoustic guitar design, resulting in world-class instruments known for their brilliance and sustain. Renowned for their impeccable craftsmanship, McPherson’s team of skilled luthiers has produced a limited number of heirloom-quality wooden guitars each year since 2001.

More recently, these same design principles have been applied to the McPherson Carbon Series, crafted with the same design philosophy and delivering exceptional results. The Carbon Series is quickly gaining recognition as the best-sounding carbon fiber acoustic guitar available today.

In addition to his work at McPherson Guitars, Matt McPherson is the Founder and CEO of Mathews Archery, the world’s leading archery company, also based in Sparta, WI, USA.
