ORDERING

Essential

The current commission price is $16750. The form, structure, and voice reflect my core design and voicing philosophy. All tonal, structural, and ergonomic elements are included: cutaway, multiscale, choice of nut width, scale length, and string spacing, Manzer wedge, mini-armrest, carved rosette with matching end graft where applicable.

All tonewoods from my reserve are included, excluding only the rarest tonewoods such as Brazilian rosewood, African blackwood and certain exceptional sets.

Every guitar is built individually, by hand, from start to finish in my workshop in France.

Alternative

Occasionally, a commission may involve exceptional tonewoods, unique visual or structural elements, or a fully entrusted design process. Such details are undertaken by private arrangement.

Payment Schedule

A non-refundable deposit of one third of the total price secures the place in my build list. Another third is due at the start of construction. The remaining balance is due upon completion and prior to delivery.

Prices do not include shipping and taxes.

Warranty

A limited 7 year warranty is issued with every guitar I make. It is tied to the original owner and is valid only while I am in business as a guitar maker. It covers faulty materials and craftsmanship. It does not cover normal wear and tear, mishandling, alterations and storage in unsuitable conditions.
