BRILEY, CLINT

Clint Briley Resonator Guitars was founded by Clint Briley in 1989, motivated by his experience of making new parts for his vintage National Duolian Resonator guitar. Briley, a machinist, has a background in dye making. With assistance from local luthier/repairman (and friend) Charlie Jirousek, Briley hand-built necks and steel bodies as he established his company.
