Been way to long!
But I have been busy, as have the musicians playing my stuff! Cigar boxes in particular.
Brian Jacksons giging with his in Toronto. Abe form the Micronitefilters has been recording and giging with his, and Bradleyboy MacArthur has been playing up a storm with his!
Some new basses have been added to the range, with some more stuff hiding in the shop.
check out the friends page and the Guitars page for more.

Even more of a while since the last time I posted some news.
As you've most likely seen on the home page, I 've been busy creating the showroom/music room. Done at last!!
And more good news.
The wine burst Enchantresse has sold!
The 2 M.I.5 basses continue to take shape.
And another comissioned guitar is on the way. More on that when the designs finalised!!

Its been a while since I last updated the site, but things haven't stopped.
I'm in the midst of building my first commissioned guitar, a Courtesan model for Dan Welsh.
There's 2 M.I.5 basses being built at the same time, as well as a baritone archtop proto-type.
I'm also hunting about for a player to sponsor. More on that later!
I've also made arrangements for all standard production guitars to use Seymour Duncan pickups! Anything they have I can get!
:)

First things first.
The launch event at Hands on Music on the 20th of March is starting to build momentum. We're getting newspaper's interest and traffic on both websites is up! Good news indeed.
We'll continue to gear up for the event to make it the best possible for all who come!
So pass the word and we hope to see you all there!
Well, things have come a long way!
This is the first big clean up and re-org of the site.
I've moved things a bit, but its all still here, in one form or another.
The 'Guitars' page now has the production versions listed.
The Proto-types now have their own page, in reverence to the past.
The 'Current Build' page will be edited, as the first 4 guitars and the proto-type bass are now complete.
The highlights will now be in the build gallery.
More changes will be coming in the near future as I rationalize the site and clean it up.
A new page will be added for past customs built and sold, which I hope will quickly become populated.
