History Behind the Name:
It all started the night I pulled a half-burned guitar from the ashes of a house fire. Most people saw a charred hunk of wood and strings, but I saw a survivor with one more song left in it. I brought that family's once treasured guitar back to life—sanding, soldering, and stringing it until it sang again. I refused to charge a dime; saving it just felt right. That moment lit a spark of its own, and from those smoky beginnings, Smoke Eater Guitars was born—proof that sometimes, even after the flames, the music still plays.
