Clive Titmuss

Early Music Studio

Gerald Sheppard has been a GAL member since 1998. When he was fifteen, in 1965, he told his parents he wanted either a guitar or a motorcycle for Christmas. Lucky for him, they bought him an inexpensive Strat copy. Gerald has been repairing, refinishing, and building guitars for twenty years, building exclusively since 1993. He prides himself in knowing how to get something nearly perfect, then goofing it up.

▪ Titmuss is a Canadian who builds and performs upon the lute. He’s also a lute historian and a musicologist. It takes an interesting person to make a mostly-forgotten piece of the past come alive, which is what Titmuss does. With 8 photos.
