    Reputable refinishing in the 2022

    Howdy everyone, I'm curious who has had guitars refinished lately. I have an Ibanez I'd like to get repainted in a sparkle finish. Ideally, I could get the headstock refinished to match as well. Sims custom shop has a nice website -- I seem to recall them getting flack a long time ago for the...

    Need Southern California Luthiers For A Project

    I want to find a luthier out of SoCal who would entertain the idea of a headless 6 string guitar build based off of a Westone Quantum Bass. Any recommendations from other forumites? The specs are quite Spartan: oiled finish, Dimarzio Titan Set, 3 way switch, hipshot headless system. Open to...

    Any luthiers in North Texas?

    Hey guys! I was curious if anyone knows of any luthiers in the North Texas/DFW area? Even if any of you are home builders in the area! My school offers a mentorship program and I was just thinking how cool it would be to do a luthiery mentorship and learn to build whilst getting school credit...

    Good Luthiers/Custom guitar makes around ?

    I was just curious if there are any luthiers floating about that anybody knows of that could do a custom 6 stringer with super basic specs for around 1100-1500. Kind of a stretch after looking at most luthiers whos work I really dig, but you never know, i'm not the luthier's yellow pages.

    Narrowed my choices for my custom 8 to Sherman, Oni, or Artinger

    I've been researching luthiers to build my custom 8 for a few months now, and I've cut it down to Sherman (I love what I've seen, but he hasn't replied to 2 emails yet), Oni (He's replied, but is sick, so we haven't discussed details yet), and today I received a very nice reply with a comparable...

    Resident luthiers - oaken guitars?

    A certain friend and six-string player was intrigued by the concept of guitars made of oak, at least as a body wood. I promised I'd start a thread asking about it here, since we have a few luthiers who hang out, to find out what they (and anyone else) think of the concept in terms of tone...
