Rúnar Sigurðsson, Luthier

 I have a degree in Multimedia from the Icelandic school of multimedia and I have a degree in teaching from the University of teaching in Iceland (now a part of Univeristy of Iceland). I have been a Luthier since 1998 working with all types of stringed instruments including violins, guitars, double basses, electric guitars and basses, ukuleles, classical guitars and many more.

I started my journey to become a Luthier 22 years ago by first learning furniture making in Iceland then in 1996 I moved to Leeds England where I learned classical guitar making and violin repair. In 2005, I became a recognised Master Luthier with a degree from the Master technical school in Iceland and in 2008 I got my degree in teaching where my focus was on making musical instruments.
