Matt Atkin

Owner & Founder, Concept Guitars

As a lifelong guitarist, I was on a relentless quest for the perfect instrument—one that felt, played, and sounded unlike anything else. When I couldn’t find it, I set out to build it myself. This journey led me to Los Angeles, the heart of high-end guitar craftsmanship, where I immersed myself in the art of lutherie.

After graduating from the Musicians Institute’s prestigious Guitar Craft program, I was hired by two leading guitar manufacturers, where I hand-built over 500 guitars. Through this experience, I refined my skills and earned the trust of a growing list of high-profile musicians who recognized the superior quality of my work.

Today, as the founder of Concept Guitars, I bring together masterful craftsmanship, intelligent design, and a timeless aesthetic to create instruments that inspire limitless creativity. Every guitar I build is a testament to innovation and artistry—setting a new standard for playability, tone, and feel.
