Dustin Williams - Nashville Luthier

I had Dustin Williams install a new bridge and plane my fingerboard. He also found a couple of open seams he took care of as well. Got it all done in a week and even stayed a little late on a Saturday afternoon for me to pick it up. Couldn't be happier and highly reccomend his shop.

Dustin is the dude for sure! I love him. He's great at what he does, the best. The next instrument I buy will be from him

I was in there the other day and he had one of Dennis Crouch's, one of Barry Bales', and one of Jerry Cherryholmes basses. Fel like an exhibit at the bluegrass hall of fame.

I gotta say all the folks that work in that shop are great. Good place to bass shop/get repairs in Nashville. Dustin is a real straight up fellow.

I met Dustin last month at Bla-Bla in Cincinnati along with his new bass luthier Jack Phelps and these guys are the bomb... Real nice guys and very together about bass restoration/repairs, making , and sales. If I wasn't in the biz and lived in Nashville I'd have them as my luthiers...
