Custom Guitars

Custom building usually starts with an idea from the customer. It's hard to get away from the standards set in the past by all the majors - Gibson, Fender, Rickenbacker, Gretsch, Epiphone, etc. Because their designs have been burnt into our psyches it's hard for us to deviate too much from the normal shapes we have become familiar with. Because of this, most custom builds start from, or are influenced by historic designs such as a Strat, Les Paul, Tele etc. etc.

If you have an idea for a design and need someone to get it together, drop me a mail with your thoughts. I don't make hundreds of instruments, each one is normally the result of someone wanting the unusual or hard to find instrument - I like a challenge. Here are a few completed projects......

This was a completely from scratch build of a Seven String guitar. The following video and photographs speak for themselves - "a picture paints a thousand words".
