Pricing (Updated Aug 09,2007)
The price for my standard guitars is CDN$ 4,500 or US$ 4,300.
Materials and hardware for my standard guitars are as follows:
Spruce or Cedar Top
Indian Rosewood Back and Sides
Spanish Cedar Neck
Ebony Fret Board
Premium Gotoh or Irving Sloane Tuners (your choice)
French polish finish
I also have a variety of other woods available, some of which may necessitate an additional cost. Specialty tuners such as Rogers, Alessi, Fustero and Gilbert are also available at my additional cost.
Standard scale length is 650 mm. Other scale lengths are available and I can also accommodate custom neck widths and string spacing. 7 or 8 string configurations can be accommodated as well.
I do not take deposits. Payment is due upon delivery. Shipping and insurance are the responsibility of the purchaser.
If the client is not completely satisfied, the full purchase price will be refunded immediately upon return of the instrument within 30 days, provided it has not been damaged. If the instrument has been damaged, I may make a deduction the amount of which shall be at my discretion. As French polish can be somewhat delicate there will be no deduction for wear, small dings etc. in the finish. I might mention that in 25 years, no one has ever refused delivery or returned a guitar.
Subsequent adjustments to the action or other requirements not necessitated by externally inflicted damage will be made free of charge.
French polish can be somewhat delicate, particularly during the first year. After about one year, the finish becomes much harder and tougher providing a superior base for subsequent renewals. Consequently I offer one free renewal of the finish after one year has elapsed.
