I welcome the opportunity to collaborate with any player who may want an instrument built to their own specifications. Subject to my capacity, commissions are accepted with an approximate 12-month turnaround. Instrument trials are available at my Wollongong workshop, located one hour south of Sydney. Online consultations can also be arranged.

The base price for a commissioned instrument is $6,000 AUD, inclusive of German-made Rubner tuners and a Hiscox hard case. Optional timber upgrades are available for those wishing to include highly figured or master-grade woods, or more elaborate decorative elements. These upgrades are aesthetic only and do not affect the tonal quality or performance of the instrument.

A Rubner ‘El Sonido’ tuner upgrade is also available, providing improved mechanical function and feature more visually elaborate designs.

I also build non-commissioned instruments to my standard specifications, which may be available through Rick Falkiner’s Guitar Centre in Mittagong.
