Monique Hernandez-Fuentes, Shop Maven

Monique Hernandez-Fuentes is a Bay Area native and cut her teeth at Gelb Music Teaching Institute in Redwood City from 1993 – 2005. She became an SF Guitarworks customer in 2008 and that as they say is history, becoming the SF Guitarworks Shop Manager from 2014 to 2017. She spent a little time working for EMG Pickups, Guitar Tricks and Gimme Radio before rejoining us in late 2019, where she enjoys assessing repairs and getting your instrument back to you in a timely manner. When she’s not at SF Guitarworks, she enjoys working on her blackgaze project in her home studio, gardening, playing with her cat Tora and a nice Syrah. Her brand of choice is PRS Guitars and she loves a good Walrus Audio pedal.
