Our area of expertise is in vintage sound, feel and look. Unless otherwise asked for, we tend to make chunky necks much like the guitars of the 50?s and 60?s. We can age the hardware and the paint can be chipped and cracked to achieve a aged and used look. Alternatively, we can make a guitar that looks like it was in a case in the loft for 40 years.
With all guitars, we use only the best woods as well as top quality hand-made pickups and the best switches, pots and inputs available.

This is a great sounding metal guitar and with the EverTune bridge, it will never any tuning issues even at very low tunings.
This bespoke Jag was made especially for a Kurt Cobain fan who wanted a guitar that accurately emulated the feel of Kurt’s guitar embodying the instrument’s distinctive sound and feel.
