‘Life is a journey,
not a destination’
Steven T.
As I reached mid-life, I realized the time had come for me to take serioulsy what had always been a capsule of freedom and happiness for me: making beautiful things with my hands and deeply feeling the vibrations of grooving melodies.
To express my love of a full and free life, I have begun to design simple but elegant guitars, inspired by the famous LP and many fantastic musicians who have truly changed the world rocking people with their gently weeping guitars.
I would like my guitars to be in their image: loud yet sweet, fragile yet powerful, aggressive yet comfortable, both raw and high-ended.

When you’ve made a decision, we finalise and quote your order together, choosing woods, hardware, colors, finish, and all other attributes. You can define the neck profile you prefer.
Feel free to ask for customized options,
I would love to realize them whenever possible.
The building will start as soon as a first non refundable deposit of 30% has been paid.
Specifications can not be modified after this payment, so we will take our time upstream together, to make them clear and certain.
Insured shipping will be charged to the customer and paid along with the final payment.
Expect 3 to 4 months between the beginning of your build and the delivery.
Instruments are non refundable.
A 2 years non-transferable builder warranty benefits to the original first hand customer. If the guitar malfunctions due to faulty materials or craftmanship, I will repair it without charge or replace it with an instrument of similar specifications.
This warranty covers every building default, but does not cover:
-Any damage due to an accident, negligence, misuse, or occurred during shipping
-Any modification or repair made by any unauthorized repairer
-Usual wear and tear such as any discoloration, fading, finish checking, or damage to the original finish, worn frets, electronics, and hardware.
-Any subjective issues, such as the ‘look’ of natural woods or finish, the ‘feeling’ of the guitar’, its ‘mojo’ and other characteristics of the instrument.
