Larkspur Lutherie

My name is Joshua Greenberg, I am a luthier based in Montreal, Canada…

My name is Joshua Greenberg and I come from Lillooet BC. My Luthier career began in Mexico in 2011 when I began an apprenticeship with Guitar and Jarana builder Daniel Lopez. Later I apprenticed with Banjo makers Jason and Pharis Romero in Horsefly and then master Gypsy jazz luthier Martin Tremblay In Montreal.

I also took two different intensive guitar building courses with Daniel Richter and Sergei De Jonge. With all these varied masterful mentors, I have had the privilege of gaining a wide range of knowledge and ways of building an instrument. I have taken all of this to develop my own methods, and the learning never ends!

As well as being a luthier I have also been a world traveller, timberframer, homesteader and commercial farmer. I am currently living in Montreal balancing a double life as a luthier and a professional musician.
