Heritage Guitars
James Deurloo walked through the old Gibson workshop, which is now the home of his company, the Heritage Guitar Company. Pointing proudly to a workstation in the middle of the old building, “that was my first workbench. I learned every skill on the line and had wonderful teachers. The old men on the line when I was a kid were happy to share what they knew, and I still use all those skills. That is why the name ‘heritage’ was the perfect name of our company.”
