Tom Waghorn began making and repairing musical instruments in 1996, with luthier Phil Davidson at Hobgoblin Music in Bristol. In 2000 Waghorn started his own workshop at Clevedon Craft Centre, making mandolins and acoustic guitars. In 2002 the worskhop was moved to Treblerock Music on St. Michaels Hill in Bristol and Waghorn concentrated exclusively on making guitars. Around 2007 Waghorn moved to his current workshop on Mill Avenue in the centre of Bristol.
