All guitars are built to order. Scale length, neck width, neck thickness, and neck shape are always cut to customer spec. If you do not know what your preferences is, we are more than happy to take the time to help you decide what is best for you.
Feel free to call or email us any time. We will discuss all the specifications and your personal preferences and provide you with a quote for your instrument.
To reserve a spot on our build list (when applicable), a refundable 25% of the quoted price is required down. 50% of the quoted price is required down to start construction. Once construction has started down payment is non refundable. Total sales price must be received to ship an instrument.
The average build time for a heavily customized guitar is about 6 to 8 months. Keep in mind that a lot of variables are at play in determining how long it will take to build your instrument. We have had build times of 2 and 3 months and others that last for well over a year. All build times are subject to change at any time and completion dates are not guaranteed.Case and shipping are not included in quoted price.
