Berkowitz Guitars are designed and built by luthier David D. Berkowitz
in his workshop in the Washington, DC neighborhood of Eastern Market
on Capital Hill.
Berkowitz's
interest in building guitars came early at the age of four and was fostered
by his discovery of the works of David Russell Young, and Irving Sloane,
both who wrote the early modern treatises of guitarmaking in the 1970's.
In 1985, Berkowitz attended the Roberto-Venn School of Lutherie. Berkowitz
continued his lutherie education on his own, eventually training with
luthier Charles Fox, at the American School of Lutherie in Healdsburg,
California.
Berkowitz began building professionally in 1993, and continues to build
fine acoustic guitars baritones and acoustic basses for the professional
musician.
