About McNally Guitars
Ciaran McNally trained as a senior craftsman at George Lowden in Northern Ireland, then as production manager at Atkin Guitars in England, before going independent in 2020 from his Craigavon workshop. The McNally voice combines the warmth and complexity of Celtic-tradition acoustics with the fundamental clarity and projection of great American steel-strings. The catalog runs from a five-body-shape Foundation series to fully bespoke commissions.
About Brickhouse Guitars
Brickhouse Guitars operates out of a converted brick house on Lancaster Street in Kitchener, Ontario — the building's history is the shop's name. The catalog runs across two distinct spaces: a Main Level store carrying the broader retail mix (Godin family acoustics, Furch's accessible-price series, Recording King, Washburn) and an Upper Luthier Gallery upstairs, by-appointment only, where the boutique work lives. The Upper Gallery is anchored by the deepest Furch and Boucher SGI Collection inventory in North America, paired with an unusually consistent stockist relationship with the Quebec luthier community — Michel Pellerin, Julien Sublet, Dontcho Ivanov, Théo Kazourian, and Bouchereau all appear regularly. Sheldon Schwartz and TreeHouse Guitars from Ontario, Ciarán McNally from Northern Ireland, and Hozen's tiered line round out the boutique slate. Pre-owned inventory rotates through Santa Cruz, Collings, Bourgeois, and other high-end American shops. The shop also operates Octane Studios at The Octave Music Centre, a sister recording space where the shop's video demos are recorded — useful context for shoppers comparing online demos against the live instrument. For shoppers focused on Furch, Boucher, or the Quebec luthier community, Brickhouse is the deepest single-dealer catalog in Canada.
