While we can make relatively "conventional" custom built instruments, we tend to specialize in more "out there" customs - either in terms of their shape and finish or in terms of their construction and materials.
And beyond 4 string basses and 6 string guitars, we also have the capability to make ukeleles, baritone guitars, multi-neck instruments, 8-string basses.
At this point we do not offer hollow-body archtop or acoustic instruments, but we do plan to eventually offer those as well.
This page illustrates some of the custom builds we are
currently working on or have recently completed.
If you have an idea for an instrument you'd like to build, feel free to contact us - and we will tell you if we can do as well as provide a preliminary estimate of the cost and time required.
