David LaPlante built his first guitar in 1966 at the age of sixteen. He has produced guitars for many amateur and professional musicians including Noel Paul Stookey, the “Paul†of Peter, Paul and Mary. David has been recognized as a restorer of early C.F. Martin guitars and his work can be seen at the C.F. Martin Museum, the Farmer’s Museum in Cooperstown, New York, and in the volume “C.F. Martin and his Guitars†by Philip F. Gura. His contributions to that book are acknowledged as well as in Jim Washburn and Richard Johnston’s “Martin Guitars†and in José L. Romanillos’ revised and augmented edition of “Antonio Torres Guitar Maker – His Life and Work.” In recent years David has returned his concentration to the building of the Classical guitar. In 2007 he attended the José L’ Romanillos course in Siguenza Spain to study with the world renowned guitar maker. David combines a traditional approach and a broad knowledge of guitar history and aesthetics to produce one of a kind signature instruments.
