Ordering
Contact Me to begin the process of ordering your instrument. I will then schedule a meeting with you in person (when possible), by phone, email or tele-conferencing–whatever you prefer. We will begin the process by discussing playing style, ergonomics, aesthetics, materials etc. related to your custom build.
An engagement fee of 20% of the value of the instrument to cover time, materials will guarantee your slot in my production list. This is non-refundable. The remainder of the payment will be due upon completion of the instrument prior to shipping.
Warranty
The warranty for our instruments extends for a period of 5 years and provides coverage for any defects or issues arising from craftsmanship. However, it is important to note that certain conditions are excluded from this warranty.
The warranty does not cover damages resulting from improper storage, modifications, mishandling, or misuse of the instrument. Additionally, any damage caused by exposure to extreme temperatures or humidity is not covered. It is essential to follow our recommended guidelines regarding the tension and type of strings used, as alterations or the use of inappropriate strings voids the warranty.
Please be aware that this warranty is valid only for the original purchaser of the instrument and is non-transferrable.
Shipping
Shipping and handling will be determined after completion of the instrument. Carriers will be determined by criteria such as appropriate insurance, storage conditions, and availability and may vary by geographical location. The client is responsible for any or all shipping expenses, international tax, tariff or custom fees including import/export regulation (eg CITIES).
