The history of Lynn Ellsworth Guitars LLC, DBA Elio J. Guitars
In 2013, Lynn Ellsworth and I, Patrick Coleman, began manufacturing hand-made guitars in Washington State under the business name; Lynn Ellsworth Guitars LLC. This humble business was gaining a loyal customer base with their great sounding and super light Relicmaster Series made from reclaimed woods, as well as the many “one-of-a-kind” custom guitars we had built to order.
In 2014 Mark Martini joined this team as a full fledged partner. His Dad, Elio J. Martini was a blue collar American who worked hard and honestly to provide for his family and he instilled these ethics in his sons.
In 2016, in an effort to further our artistic vision, Mark and I bought out all Lynn’s interest in this business, retaining this brand that we had built together, while adding our new brand.
Our company is based on the same ideals that Elio lived his life by; Hard working, American values. When it came time to name this new brand, the logical choice was Elio J. Guitars, so we are also doing business as (DBA) Elio J. Guitars.
The next order of business was to revive some of the innovative guitars David Levine had designed for 17th Street Guitar, before they went out of business. To accurately reproduce these awesome guitar models, we added Dave Levine to our team as a consultant.
In a world that pumps out guitars like a cookie-cutter on an assembly line; identically, Lynn Ellsworth Guitars LLC, DBA Elio J. Guitars continues to buck the trend by creating each guitar with its own unique personality and characteristics, right here in the US of A!
To this day, Mark and I continue to bring our customers the quality they have become accustomed to, at a price they can afford,while going out of our way to treat each customer and their guitar, with the utmost dedication and attention that they deserve.
