Welcome! I am Jason M. Rodgers, sole proprietor and artisan behind Jayemar Guitars (say my initials, J.M.R., like "jay-em-ar"). Based in Lake Oswego, Oregon, USA, I handcraft every guitar in my small home shop, ensuring attention to detail and quality craftsmanship.
At Jayemar Guitars, it is my mission to create consistently excellent instruments using only locally and domestically sourced US woods and materials. I specialize in multi-scale extended-range guitars and basses, and each instrument features pickups wound in-house. You're going to want to check these out!

Because sustainability matters.
By choosing a Jayemar guitar, you're not only investing in superior craftsmanship but also supporting responsible resource management. I am committed to using locally and domestically sourced woods - including up-cycled and reclaimed materials - prioritizing sustainability without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
