Vacancy caducado!
Dunable Guitars is looking for a hardworking and experienced guitar/bass assembly technician for our custom shop instruments. One of our long-time assembly techs is leaving and we are in search of the perfect candidate to add to our team of skilled professionals.
We are not looking to train a beginner from the ground up, although we will train as to how we do things, as well as help fill in the blanks for the right person who is more skilled in some of these areas than others. At least two years of experience in a professional shop doing frets, installing electronics and hardware, slotting nuts, and final setup, with meticulous attention to detail. The ideal candidate has either worked in a similar role, or possibly in a repair shop, or QC'd import guitars.
You would have your own bench, and be one of three techs in our final assembly shop, with a weekly quota of guitars, fresh out of the paint shop, to assemble.
We are a small company of fewer than ten people, and we work hard, but we also have fun.
Our shop is located in Bell Gardens, just southeast of downtown Los Angeles.
