Erwin van Waardenburg
The Guitar Company was founded by Erwin van Waardenburg, a true lover of vintage guitars. He has been collecting these special instruments since he was a child. He enjoys sharing his knowledge and passion with others and loves hearing the stories of other collectors and guitarists. For Erwin, there is nothing better than finding the right owner for a guitar.
His love for vintage guitars began when he was twelve. After working all summer, he bought his first real guitar: a 1972 Gibson SG Special. Now, more than twenty years and many guitars later, he has built up an impressive collection, with a special fondness for vintage Gibson guitars.
Over the years, Erwin has handled countless guitars. As a result, he has developed a keen eye for what truly makes a guitar special: originality, tone, and how it plays. Drawing on that experience, he’s happy to help you find your ideal vintage guitar—perhaps even your very own “Holy Grail.”
At The Guitar Company, you can count on honest advice and a great passion for vintage guitars. Discover what Erwin's years of experience can mean for you during your musical quest.
