Stu Corwin was featured in an exhibit entitled "100 American Instrument
Makers" at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution, which
included one of his early lutes. He is also known for his art
deco "teridactle" electric guitars, which carried the art of
handcrafted exotic wood California guitar making to it's height.
Mr. Corwin has been retired from instrument making for several decades.
