Due to the nature of custom work it is hard to come up with a hard set fee. Each individual job is slightly different and the time needed for each one isn't really known until you get down to working on it. Therefore the prices below are more of a rough guide and starting point.
If you scout about the internet you will soon find that custom work, whether it be on guitars or anything else, takes a lot of time and care; and the right knowledge and equipment to be done well.
Here you will find very good value custom work that you will give you a completely unique guitar. Each paintjob being designed on the customers idea and hence a very personal and total one-off guitar, with a high attention to detail and a professional standard of workmanship and finish.
Solid Body Electric guitar/bass
For a better idea of a price specific to your own ideas and guitar just email me with a bit of basic info such as guitar type, condition, extent of prep wanted/needed and any art ideas and I will back to you with a more in depth price sheet and a quote for the work. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you are thinking about getting something done or just want to have a quick discussion about everything to find out a bit more.

I can work over an existing finish OR pre-stripped/bare body, both these take a similar amount of preperation, OR send me the body to be stripped.
Large chips and chunks of wood missing are no problem to fix.
I'm afraid I don't do simple resprays and colour changes. I specialise in any necssary repair work leading to custom handpainted artwork and clearcoat refinishing.

40% deposit with the item.
Remaining 60% plus relevant postage on completion before return to the customer.
Turnaround can be anywhere between 6 - 14 weeks for guitar work. I can give a much better idea of time-scale once we finalise ideas and we know exactly what is going to be done. These things do take time to do properly and to a high standard so it’s worth the wait.
