STANDARD BODY SHAPES





STANDARD HEADSTOCK SHAPES


Most every guitar that I build is a custom guitar. That means practically everything
about your guitar (within reason) is wide open.

I price my guitars based on the STANDARD or SUPREME baseline models,
described below,  with something of an a la carte approach to other options.
The prices on this page will help you get a ballpark idea, but I determine a final price based on detailed discussions of exactly what you want for your guitar. Some combinations work better than others, and the price may reflect that.

Here are the baseline specs & prices, scroll down to the bottom of the page to see
prices on some common options, and to see how I handle payments, deposits, etc.

 Both the standard and supreme models are available with any of the shapes
shown on the left. Custom body shapes can be done for a $150 up charge, minimum (depending on the shape & size). Custom headstock shapes, for a minimum $50.

The C shape is not available with a neck single coil due to the design of the neck joint.
The M headstock is available right or left handed.

Terms

I try to be flexible when it comes to payment terms, so if you have any particular conditions you want to discuss, e-mail me.
 
A down-payment of around 50% is always required before I can start on a build, and once materials are purchased, that is non-refundable.
Depending on the total cost, additional payments may be required throughout the build in order to stay on schedule. 

Depending on my workload, there may be a significant wait time before I can start on your build.
If you're not ready to make a down-payment, but want to secure your place in line - you can do that with a small deposit.
That deposit is non-refundable, and goes toward your initial down-payment whenever you're ready for it.

My prices are subject to change due to many factors. Any quotes are good for 30 days.
