While ordering, it is important to keep in mind that this is a series guitar with a choice of configuration. After agreeing on the order and making an advance payment, we cannot guarantee to notify you every time we switch from one stage of production to another and we cannot always send photos due to high timeloads. We will notify you when it's done and send it after final payment. If you are a nice person (99% of our customers are) and respect the luthier work then we will be happy to send you a couple of photos if our builders have a spare minute or so.
The production time depends on the workload of the workshop and currently varies from 1 to 3 months. Sometimes we have ready-to-go models in stock.
Attention! Serial made guitars may have minor imperfections of wood, such as small knots, unevenness of the structure, however, the more expensive setup you selected, the more strict visual choice of wood. Never, in any configuration, these imperfections do not affect the sound, design or technical properties of the instrument. Serial guitars do not subject to the requirements of the "custom" and class AAA wood. On average we use - A grade for the body and AA for the neck.
When selecting wood our focus is always on the required cut structure of the workpiece (the structure and directions of the fibers), its evenness and dryness of the wood - that is, what really affects the technical properties, durability of the guitar and ease of use. Choosing the wrong piece and insufficient dryness will lead to a curvature of the geometry of the neck and /or fretboard (we fix such type of problems in our workshop for our repairs customers literally every week).
If you want to select a specific blank for the neck / body /fretboard for your instrument, the order will be transferred to the Custom status, the cost and timings will be increased, and all the wood will be selected not only by mechanical, but also visual properties.
