And, for the information of all, Schroeder has and can make solid body guitars that are resonant, toneful, and play amazingly well. They also are far less expensive, take less time and thus Schroeder is more interested in making than the archtops.

I came across a pic of a Tim Schroeder Solidbody - a slightly fuzzy pic.....but here you go....

check out the site dudes! he's got some cool pics that i haven't seen...

I'll forever curse and praise my teacher, Frank Rumoro, for introducing me to Tim's guitars and his work in general. I'm a happy owner of Tim's black tele-style guitar, which is an amazing player. I also lucked into an early hollowbody of his, which I pretty much have to touch at least once a day. I'd post pictures if my photo skills had any merit.

I've never actually met Tim, but he's worked on several of my guitars, doing major fret/neck, electronics, and wood work, and they're all first rate. I don't know if I could ever leave Chicago for fear of subjecting my instruments to potentially inferior luthery. That's extreme, but if you're in the Chicago-land area I heartily recommend him.

Rumoro eh? Great guy and teacher!! I had also heard of Tim first through Rumoro. Since Frank is extremely knowledgeable, AND picky about these things, I really trust his opinion and recommendation to use Tim's services.

BTW.....Tim, your website looks great!!

The best thing about Tim......he does incredible high-end work like what's shown above, yet he's not above turning my lowly DeArmond M77T into a great player.

It's getting new pots/caps and a new set of frets as we speak. It will be the 3rd or 4th cheap-ass guitar that Tim has helped me turn into something special and/or at least enjoyable. :BEER

i heard schroeder's out of town for a couple of weeks...

as soon as he's back, i'm thinking about having him drop a couple of humbuckers into my tele....

i'd really like to convince him to make me a copy of his distortion box prototype...

that thing screams!

Too bad the name "Tim" is already taken.
