Meet Dave Soriano, Founder of Bryan Custom Guitars

Bryan Custom Guitars was born out of a lifelong passion for woodworking, sparked at a young age when I was introduced to my family’s construction and woodworking business in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. It was there, surrounded by seasoned craftsmen and old-world techniques, that I began honing the skills of carpentry and woodworking—learning from the “old timers” who could sharpen a hand tool so well, you could shave with it.

Woodworking runs deep in my roots. My late grandfather on my mother’s side was also a talented woodworker, designing and building furniture throughout the 1930s and ’40s. Though I never had the chance to meet him, I was given “Bryan” as a middle name in his honor. When it came time to brand my own guitars, using Bryan felt like the perfect tribute.

Since launching Bryan Custom Guitars in 2010, I’ve been dedicated to crafting high-quality custom guitars and basses, one instrument at a time. Each build features unique finishes—created through experimentation with powdered dyes, stains, and paints—and is made from the finest materials and hardware available.

My instruments are trusted and played on main stages by nationally touring musicians, and I’ve been fortunate to build lasting relationships with the companies that supply parts for my custom builds. Every Bryan guitar is a reflection of my commitment to craftsmanship, tone, and playability.

I'd love to build something truly special for you.
