Meet Rogier Broekhuis, the luthier behind Gitaar Afstellen Groningen.

Who is Rogier from Gitaar Afstellen Groningen?

Music is my greatest passion. From a young age, I’ve been writing songs and playing in bands. As an artist, my life is deeply intertwined with everything music-related. Next to designing tools to help people learn music theory for Wheel of Fifths, I’ve been working as a luthier since 2020 – repairing, restoring and building all kinds of guitars and basses.

I’d love to get your guitar or bass playing, sounding and looking like new again. Whether you need a complete setup, a specialised repair or a full restoration, I’ll give your instrument the attention it deserves. I use specialised tools to perform adjustments and repairs with millimetre accuracy. Got any questions or specific requests? Feel free to get in touch – I’m happy to help!
