Building a guitar is a very personal experience between builder and customer. Prior to ordering we must discuss your desires in great depth, and an appropriate instrument can then be planned. I believe the builder should explore and understand the areas other instruments have dissappointed your needs and expectations, and only then can the builder begin to apply his ideas to the design.
Currently there is a waiting list to commission a build, so notify me soon if you are interested and save a spot.
I am currently an apprentice level builder so this is a great time to commission a high end instrument at a low price.
All guitars currently start at $1,000 base price, and price is adjusted for non standard choice woods and upgrades such as inlays, bindings, purflings, tuners, electronics, arm rests or other ergonomic designs, and special non-standard finishes. There are no premiums for body style or design within reason. Any special instrument designs are subject to our discussion and possible premiums will apply depending on design.
Guitars will be secured with $400 down and $200 upon the start of the instrument. The final amount must be payed before shipment of completed instrument. Guitars may be returned in perfect condition as they were shipped minus a $200 stocking fee, or there can be an agreed upon period of time for me to sell the instrument. If the instrument does not sell in time, the money will be refunded minus the $200 re-stocking fee.
