Who I am and what I do

I’ve been working on guitars since 2009, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to work professionally as a repair technician in multiple shops, as well as tour with some of the biggest names in country music. For every guitarist I tech for, my goal is always the same: deliver the highest-quality work I can, every time.

Two things have always been especially important to me as a tech—being able to consistently replicate my setup work and do it efficiently. Along the way, I started designing my own tools and jigs to make that possible. I tried having those designs manufactured through different companies, but no one was willing to take a chance on them.

In 2023, I decided to do it myself. I bought my first 3D printer, taught myself CAD, and started bringing my ideas to life. While my main focus is on tech tools and setup gear, you’ll also find other designs I’ve created for fellow techs working on the road.

Hardin’s Backline Supply is my way of sharing those tools—gear created and designed by a backline tech, for backline techs.
