Jacob Stutzman
Hi! I've played all sorts of instruments ranging from woodwinds to drums and I consider myself an avid acoustic singer/songwriter but I will branch out to other styles occasionally. I am a graduate of an amazing Music Technology school here in Fort Wayne. During my time at school, I had the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience on many different DAW's, instruments, hardware, microphones, and software. I have recorded several albums and worked with some amazing gear, including my favorite--a Neve 5088 console. I am confident my experience will help me to pick the right gear for your applications. I look forward to the opportunity to learn what drives you musically and doing what I can to continue to fuel that passion.
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.

acob Stutzman was incredibly patient and helpful while dealing with me being indecisive about my order. Never once did he seem frustrated when he had every right to be.

Sweetwater really is the best place to order musical gear, Jacob has always kept me in the loop on product ETA’s and has always just been the best rep for literally ANY company that deals with online orders. Unless it’s a custom boutique product or something like that I use Sweetwater exclusively for my musical gear! Thanks again!
