The Fine Print:
Contact me directly to inquire about purchasing a guitar or commissioning a custom instrument. Ideally, I’d have you visit my shop so I can watch and hear you play—this gives me invaluable insight to craft an instrument that fits you perfectly.
Once we settle the details, I’ll send a written proposal outlining everything we’ve agreed on. If it all looks good, a non-refundable $1,000 deposit reserves your place on my build list. When I begin construction, half of the remaining balance is due. The final payment is due upon completion and before delivery. Current wait time is approximately 6 months.

My Signature Concert Model blends classic design with modern refinement. Featuring Torres’ 650 mm scale length, a comfortable 53mm nut, slim neck, and an elevated fingerboard with a 20th fret, it offers exceptional playability and extended range.
Inspired by Thomas Humphrey, the elevated fingerboard increases torque at the bridge and soundboard, enhancing punch, volume, and sustain. Gil Carnal’s double sides and solid liners create a rigid rim that efficiently channels energy into the top, while a Hauser-style fan bracing pattern delivers a traditional, resonant voice.
Premium purfling comes standard, and each instrument is finished entirely in traditional French polish for maximum tonal response.
