Bernie Lehmann, owner of Lehmann Strings, builds guitars and other stringed instruments and also does repairs and restorations. He specializes in the so-called gypsy (Selmer) style favored by gypsy jazz guitarist Django Rhinehardt. He also builds archtops, flattops, classical and traveler styles. His guitars can customized to the player's tastes if so desired.
Bernie's shop is upstairs in the building, but you can see his windows from the parking lot.

2010-02-17 17:33:08 Bernie Lehmann has repaired my acoustics and electric guitars. He always provided helpful and insightful information on my instruments and how to care for them. He also took the time to educate me on he builds his instruments and shown just how much of a master luthier an individual must be to build stringed instruments. - Clint Ferrel —ClintFerrel
