All my guitars are made to the individual requirements of the customer including: nut sizes, string spacing at the bridge, scale length and neck shape (restrictions apply to my Estudio 37 student model).
A £500 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your order. I normally ask for a partial payment of 20% of the remaining balance when I start to build your guitar, with the remaining balance to be paid upon completion.
