about us
Several years ago I was asked by a friend to build him a copy of Rory Gallaghers iconic Stratocaster and he was delighted with the result. I decided that there might be more people who would want one of these guitars so I began making what I called my "Tribute" series of guitars.
From there it was a small step to go from copying famous axes to making my totally unique models. Each guitar is handbuilt and by the very nature of making and ageing by hand means that you will never find 2 identical guitars.
I finish all my guitars with Nitrocellulose Lacquer as was used by Fender up until 1968. Personally I find the acoustic properties of the guitar are much better when Nitrocellulose Lacquer is used and it will continue to age naturally in time.
You will notice that most of the guitars pictured are Fender models and that is simply because that is by far the most popular of all the relics that I produce although I have relic'd Gibsons, Rickenbackers, and others. I don't only work on guitars - Precision and Jazz Basses galore have been through my hands.
My ethos is simple - to build guitars that look and play great.
