He builds gypsy jazz guitars and nylon string/classical guitars, as well as electric ones, and is developing an arch-top model. As competition from factory-built instruments is fierce Godefroy believes that a handcrafted guitar needs to be of the highest standard. He achieves this by selecting by hand and carefully craft every piece of wood He learned his craft on the guitar-making course at London Metropolitan University in east London. Where he trained for four years under the supervision of Dave Witheman, Norman Mayll and Dave King and also worked as a part-time repairer at Hanks guitar shop in Denmark Street in London.
