Frank Ford, luthier’s luthier extraordinaire, passed yesterday, December 17th

 

From Gryphon’s:

“We are devastated to announce that Frank Ford, the co-founder of Gryphon Stringed Instruments, passed away Sunday afternoon after a brief illness. He was loved by those who were fortunate to know him and work beside him and he was respected by those in the wider luthier community who benefited from his generous spirit. He will be missed.”

Mr. Ford was extremely kind and supportive with my humble me, also at a distance. His site - so lovingly kept and fed - was a luthiery goldmine and he was never tired to share his knowledge 🥇 - I’ll miss him a lot 💔
