Hi,
I am currently getting a custom made guitar, its been taking a very long time; my mothers house is almost completed and they started around the same time (guitar might have been even sooner). My issue is, we agreed on a price before he begun, I paid half up front; total price $1,975.
But now, 2 weeks from completion he has asked me for extra costs; locking nuts, 4 neck bolts/screws, the cost of knobs and another charge to put it all together and wire it up.
Is this acceptable? I'm a little peeved that this wasn't arranged in the original quote, as I always explained that I wanted a CUSTOM MADE GUITAR, not custom made parts. My other problem is he tells me he is going to have something done, but never gets around to it (was going to email some photos by the weekend but that was over 1 - 2 weeks ago) and never responds to my emails.
What do you guys think?
