What I Offer 

As you may be able to tell from my model range, I’ve always liked the more avant-garde instruments which push the boundaries a bit. The focus with my builds is usually looking forward, rather than backwards to the well known Fender and Gibson instruments. As you will see, I do also have plenty of instruments in my model range which are clearly inspired by these big names, however I always like to introduce a twist here-and-there to make the designs more current. I generally try and stray away from outright copies which have had no additional thought put into them. You will see such innovations as the True Temperament fretting system, Evertune bridges, non-traditional wood choices and unconventional scale lengths here. If you’d like a Strat which looks like it’s been run over by a bus, maybe look elsewhere!

 

So in summary my model range is largely split into two categories - classics reimagined and avant-garde designs. In addition to this I’m also happy to work with you to create one off custom builds to bring your dream guitar to life!

In addition to our custom built instruments, we also offer an extensive list of guitar repair services to Shropshire, Cheshire, Worcestershire, Mid Wales, the West Midlands and beyond.

 

These services include (but are not limited to) setup, fretwork, refrets, damage repair, upgrades and even a full refinish service in a variety of finish types, including Nitrocellulose paint.

 

So, in short we can carry out literally any kind of repair/maintenance work on both electric and acoustic instruments.
