Les Guitares Oddities

A guitar enthusiast, I have been captivated by the craft of luthiery since my teenage years. I began my college training in the arts at Lutherie-Guitare Bruand at the age of 17.

After three years of study, I had the honor of completing the Bruand luthiery program with the first prize for excellence. During this training, I had the opportunity to learn alongside professional luthiers such as Jef Demers, René Wilhelmy, Hugues Lefort, and Pier Bergeron.

After graduating, I founded my company, Oddities Guitars. I also became involved with the Lutherie-Guitare Bruand school, where I worked as a technician, administrative assistant, and now as a member of the board of directors.

Located in Longueuil, I pursue my passion by offering custom guitars and repair services.

In 2018, after completing my studies in guitar making, I launched Oddities Guitars, with the ambition of creating modern and unique instruments while integrating traditional elements. Guided by my values, I quickly chose to prioritize indigenous woods, supporting local sourcing and eco-responsibility.

My approach as a luthier is based on the use of carefully selected pieces of wood, which, when worked appropriately, provide exceptional sound quality while giving my instruments a distinctive aesthetic. This aesthetic takes shape through my unconventional designs, which highlight the natural beauty of the wood.

Passionné de guitare, le métier de luthier m’a captivé dès mon adolescence. J'ai débuté ma formation collégiale en métiers d’art chez Lutherie-Guitare Bruand à l’âge de 17 ans.

Après trois années d’études, j’ai eu l'honneur de compléter le programme de lutherie Bruand avec le premier prix d’excellence. Au cours de cette formation, j'ai eu l'occasion d'apprendre aux côtés de luthiers professionnel tels que Jef Demers, René Wilhelmy, Hugues Lefort et Pier Bergeron.

Après ma graduation, j'ai fondé ma compagnie, Les Guitares Oddities. Je me suis également impliqué au sein de l’école Lutherie-Guitare Bruand, où j'ai été appariteur, adjoint administratif et, à présent, membre du conseil d’administration.

Situé à Longueuil, je pratique ma passion en offrant des services de fabrication et de réparation de guitares.

En 2018, après avoir terminé mes études en lutherie, j'ai lancé Les Guitares Oddities, avec l'ambition de créer des instruments modernes et uniques tout en intégrant des éléments de la lutherie traditionnelle. Guidé par mes valeurs, j'ai rapidement choisi de privilégier les bois indigènes, favorisant ainsi l'achat local et l'écoresponsabilité.

Mon approche en tant que luthier repose sur l'utilisation de pièces de bois soigneusement sélectionnées, qui, lorsqu'elles sont travaillées de manière appropriée, offrent une qualité sonore exceptionnelle tout en conférant à mes instruments un aspect esthétique distinctif. Cette esthétique prend forme à travers mes designs atypiques, qui mettent en valeur la beauté naturelle du bois.
