John Reuter was hired as an instructor
after graduating from Roberto-Venn in 1984 and participating in the graduate
workshop program. John received a degree in Manufacturing Engineering
Technology from Arizona State University in 1982 and worked as a machinist
and programmer of CNC machines before enrolling at R-V. These experiences
and John's impeccable craftsmanship have resulted in improved construction
techniques, curriculum revisions, and his promotion to Director of Training
for the school in 1995. John's custom built
"Reuter Guitars" have found their
way onto the covers of FRETS and Guitarmaker magazines, and into the hands of
fine musicians like Jorma Kaukonen and Joe Myers.
John constructed this harp guitar, designed by
William Eaton.
