About Jeremy Houston Roden

Anyone that knows Jeremy Roden will tell you, he is always working on a new project. Jeremy is an artisan in Dallas who has earned a reputation for his creativity, his talents being writing, design, woodworking and teaching.

Born in Amarillo Texas, Jeremy's journey into the world of craftsmanship began at an early age on a large ranch just south of the Red River near the oil town of Electra Texas. He eagerly soaked up the knowledge and learned new skills passed down by his father, Sam Houston Roden, an oil and businessman. Jeremy credits his father for teaching him about tools, building and the power of a vivid imagination. Guided by his father's stories, lessons and unwavering curiosity, Jeremy quickly developed a profound appreciation for the art of creating and building unique works from raw and reclaimed materials such as wood, steel and bronze. This passion eventually led him to study fine arts at the School of Visual Arts and Design at UNT, where he focused on design, sculpture and fabrication. Over the years, Jeremy continued to refine his design skills, earned an MBA from LSU along the way and has transformed his love of design and woodworking into a business. Roden Guitars & Woodworks was born.

Drawing upon his father's legacy, Jeremy embarked on a journey of creative self-discovery, spending countless hours in his workshop and studio learning and honing his craft, immersing himself in the intricate process of designing woodworks, custom guitars, restoration, and refinishing. Whether he is designing a custom guitar or woodwork from scratch, refinishing or breathing new life into a cherished instrument, Jeremy's attention to detail and commitment to excellence shines in every project he undertakes for his clients.

Today, his reputation as a custom guitar builder and woodworker has garnered him a loyal following of enthusiasts, professional musicians, and collectors from across Dallas/Fort Worth and throughout Texas.
