Bruce Scotten

Mr. Bruce Alan Scotten, age 67 of Spring Hill, TN passed away September 18, 2015 at the VA Hospital in Nashville, TN. Born in St. Johnsbury, VT to the late Ernest & Mildred Scotten. He received his Bachelors of Science degree from Lyndon State College in Lyndon, VT. He became a master guitar builder and moved to Spring Hill, TN in 1976 where he opened the Apprentice Shop, a school for guitar building and repair. The Apprentice Shop was also the exclusive repair facility for Gibson Guitars as well as designing and building Fender Guitar's first American made acoustic guitar line. In August of 1998, Bruce's health forced his early retirement from the work he loved. After retirement he enjoyed designing and building wooden clocks. His hope was for people to enjoy the projects that he had made just as much as he enjoyed making them. Bruce was a former Alderman for the City of Spring Hill and was very active in the community. He was also a member of Spring Hill Church of Christ. Bruce leaves behind the love of his life, wife Jean Maupin of Spring Hill, TN; brother, George (Susan) Scotten of Hartland, VT; sister, Mildred (Dwayne) Stahler of Nashville, TN; step-daughter, Debby (Rollie) Beard of Leipers Fork, TN; granddaughter, Tara (Matt) Rhea; great-grandsons, Slaid & Jack Rhea and many many loving friends.
