Making a Custom Guitar
I build custom instruments that are unique and designed specifically for each player. To me, that is what “custom guitar” means. The instrument should fit your body and hands, have an action that matches your particular touch, and speaks to you when you hear its voice. When this happens, you grow as an artist.
The Design and Building Process
I like to get to know as much about each you and your music as I can before design and construction begin. Customers often visit me at my workshop for this reason. We can also arrange a series of online consultations so I can get to know you, listen and watch how you approach your instrument and music. We discuss woods, size, body type, scale length, nut width, fingerboard radius, finishes and design details. Customers often have design ideas in mind. I try to integrate this ideas in the correct way. You, the customer, are part of the process after all. My goal is that an instrument as unique as its owner is born.
