We guide you through the options and develop a complete specification around what matters to you.

3

Built in our UK workshop

Your guitar is professionally assembled, wired and set up by our experienced team.

4

Your guitar, ready to play

Your finished instrument is carefully packed and delivered ready for you to make it your own.

A genuinely personal instrument

Designed with you. Built for you.

This is more than choosing parts. We work with you to create a complete guitar around your ideas, playing style and budget, from the first conversation to the final setup.

  • A complete guitar created around the look, sound and feel you want
  • Personal guidance to turn your ideas into an agreed specification
  • Professionally assembled, wired and set up ready to play
  • Built by our experienced team in our UK workshop
  • Bespoke, small business service without the extreme custom shop price

Every build includes a 2-year limited warranty. If a fault or part failure occurs, we’ll help you out. Even after the warranty ends, get in touch and we’ll do what we can.

Frequently asked questions

How bespoke can my guitar be?

We design each guitar around your preferences using carefully selected components from our range. Tell us how you want it to look, sound and feel, and we’ll explain the options and create a specification with you.

Do you only build from your own parts?

Our standard service is based on components available through Guitar Anatomy. If you have a special request, include it in your enquiry and we’ll confirm whether we can help.

Do I need to know exactly what I want?

Not at all. You may have a complete specification or only a general idea. Tell us about your playing style and the guitar you imagine, and we’ll guide you through the choices.

How much will my build cost?

Custom builds start from £449 for a fully built and assembled guitar. Most complete builds fall between £500 and £800, depending on the specification and work involved. Submit the form below with your target budget and we’ll come back with suitable options.

How long will it take?

Lead time is generally up to 30 days, although your build may be ready sooner. We’ll keep you updated along the way.

What happens after I enquire?

We’ll review your ideas, ask any useful follow-up questions and prepare a proposed specification and quote. We usually respond within 1 working day. An enquiry does not commit you to an order.

How will my guitar be delivered?

Your finished guitar will be carefully packed and shipped to you. International delivery is also available, and we’ll confirm the appropriate delivery option with you before your build is completed.

Can I collect my guitar in person?

If you’re local to Newcastle, collection may be possible by arrangement. Mention this in your enquiry and we’ll confirm the available options with you.

No obligation enquiry

Let’s Talk About Your Build

Tell us about the guitar you have in mind, how you want it to look, sound and feel, the music you play and your budget. We’ll help turn those ideas into a complete instrument.

You don’t need every detail worked out. An exact plan or simply a sound, style or feel is enough to begin.
