CASEY COOK LEAD GUITARIST "Smashcan"

After touring for 18 years all over the United States and Canada, backing up some of the biggest bands in the world and headlining dates in clubs, concert halls and stadiums, I have worked with some of the best guitar techs in the industry...

After moving to Newberry, in Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula 4 years ago, I didn't think that I would be able to find someone of the caliber I needed to work on my collection of six-string guitars...

I'm kind of fussy when it comes to my instruments, and I need them to be "Cookerized" to be perfect for my style of playing and insist that they stay that way throughout each performance...

Well, I found that guy in Chip Brauer! We instantly bonded because he's the type of guy who knows what professional guitarists expect in their axe! He has the experience, both as a guitar repairman and as a road tech...

I know that every time I pick up one of my guitars, they will be ready for the onslaught, because they've been in the caring hands of Chip Brauer! I totally have no hesitation in having Chip Brauer from Vintage Guitar Man in Germfask "Cookerize" my guitars before, during and after a show! And you shouldn't hesitate either! After all, that's why they call him, the "UP Guitar Man!!!"
