Custom Guitar Body Blanks

​

We craft traditional style guitars from locally sourced woodland lumber. Each instrument is meticulously hand-sanded before polishing with a natural product that seals and protects the wood. The natural finish offers excellent durability and resilience to daily guitar playing wear. The wood is allowed to breathe and its tonal characteristics resonate for optimal sound and satisfying performance.

“Having picked up my new prized treasure last Sunday, 3 rehearsals later, with 3 different bands, I’m growing to love the sound and the feel more and more. Will be taking it into PMT in Birmingham soon to let them see what a great job you make of a custom build. Cheers & thanks!”. Graham S., Sutton Coldfield, UK.
