[Profile]
Born in 1960 in Gifu, he initially worked as a craftsman before deciding to make guitars. At the age of 34, he joined Yukihide Chai's guitar workshop in Nagano Prefecture. After three years of apprenticeship, he became independent and opened his own workshop in Gifu. He is a member of the Japan String Instrument Makers Association.

His guitars are well-built with attention to detail, and he is flexible in incorporating modern elements such as double tops and raised fingerboards. His guitars consistently maintain a high average in terms of ease of playability, volume, and acoustic balance, and his user base is steadily expanding.
