How? I'm glad you asked.
I've played so many guitars over the course of time - many, many AMAZING guitars. But I never really connected with how the guitars looked ON me ON stage. I design EGW guitars from the ground up as THE GUITARS I will pick up - every time. All the design elements you would expect out of a pristine instrument... perfectly balanced...
Your guitar is an extension of you. It should play as such. Entrusting the care of your instrument to Endorian Guitarworks ensures that your axe will sing the same tune as your soul. With 25 years industry experience, it's my personal goal to care for your instruments like my own - keeping you center-stage where you belong.

Welcome home.
-Matt Ackerman (EGW owner)
I've been a guitarist since age 14, been working on my gear since I was 16, and playing professionally since I was 18. Like many, for a time I set set the professional aspect aside and focused on the things people told me I should care about. And in 2020 I woke up an declared enough was enough. Life is short and this is my passion.
