OUR TEAM

BRYAN – Bryan started Parris Guitars as a side business after moving to Knoxville in 2009. As the shop has added other employees, his primary work now revolves around structural repairs, finish work, fretwork, and business development.
RANCE – Rance joined the team in 2019 after years of successful work as a jeweler. His primary work is setups, fret dressing, nuts, and saddles. Rance’s creativity, unique skills, and attention to detail set him apart as one of the best setup techs in East Tennessee. 
JOSH – Josh came on board in late 2021 to help us stay caught up on electronics work. What was intended to be a short term contract has turned into a two-day per week job and we are lucky to have his talent here in the shop. Josh is also a seasoned guitar instructor and builds custom guitars and basses as Hobbs Guitars.
ELIAS – Elias is the latest addition to our team. He apprenticed with us during the summer of ’23 and quickly showed himself to be a rockstar setup tech! Elias also a skilled barista and runs a coffee shop with his family in Powell, TN. 
TONY – Tony moved to Knoxville in 2005 and quickly became known for his creative skills as a luthier. Tony builds guitars and pickups as Banda Guitars.  Glad to have him on board the Parris Guitars team!
