Custom Acoustics
We can make several styles of Acoustic guitars; OM & '000 style bodies, Dreadnoughts and Jumbo's. The guitars that have been made at the workshop have consisted of Premium Solid Woods sourced from within the UK.
The Jumbo's are great with Maple back & sides with a Spruce Top, a bright and clear tone, a Rosewood back & side jumbo with a Spruce top would also be a great choice. The OM & '000 style guitars sound great with Rosewood & Spruce, Mahogany back & sides with a Western Red Cedar is also a great combination.
Every Custom Acoustic is made by hand, all have scalloped bracing and can be finished in either a hi gloss Cellulose Lacquered finish or a Tru-Oil hand finish which has a more subtle sheen as opposed to a gloss.
Prices start from £2000
