Andy Crockett began his professional career as a guitar maker in 1975. He is best known for his range of JC1 archtops, made to a design by his long time friend and guitarist Jon Case  (they built their first guitar together in 1964).

Rossli Guitar Company

Information

The Rossli Guitar Company is an English guitar brand operating in Kent, producing small numbers of instruments. Rossli has been associated at various times with luthiers Robin Day and Andy Crockett. Limited information suggests Rossli guitars were being made in the early 1980s, so the brand predates this period. The company still appears to be still active today, via Robin Day's Beartone brand.
