Luthier making custom resonator and electric guitars on the Isle of Man
Remember that the point of a custom guitar is to have exactly what you want, not what the manufacturer wants to sell you!
I can't build the standard model guitars as cheaply as the commercial makers. What I can offer you is a guitar that's different from everyone else's. I also do repairs, custom mods and
I’m happy to do variations and one-off guitars. You’ll see a few I have made scattered around the site, like this cutaway acoustic in Tasmanian Blackwood & cedar.

If you own a budget resonator and are disappointed with the sound, why not have it upgraded with a quality cone? You will be amazed at the difference it makes.

Meet your maker! Find out a bit about me and my friends, or check out my favourite websites.
I build roundneck and squareneck acoustic and electric resonator guitars, electric guitars, lap steels, travel resonators, resonator mandolins & bass guitars. Because they're all hand made there's no extra charge for left handers. On a budget? How about an upgraded Korean-made metal bodied single cone resonator?

UPDATE: Those of you who have been checking the site regularly will know that I have been having chemotherapy. Unfortunately it’s taking much longer to get over it than I would like, so I think that realistically I will now not be taking on any new work until the end of the year.
In the meantime please look around the site for useful information. I will be around to answer questions, but by email only please, and it may take a few days for me to get back to you.
