Built it.

Premium eco soundtools. For you.

  • A custom guitar is a personal journey, and we understand that. Share your vision with us, and we will design and build a unique guitar specifically for you. Your guitar journey starts with an initial chat. Then the fun really begins as we create a truly unique, one of a kind instrument of timeless quality. 

    Configure your build specs below & safe your building slot. Pickups, finish, wood-choice, hardware—all of these things are open to alteration. It's your guitar, it's custom, it's up to you.

    Don’t bin that old closet! We can instead salvage the wood and build a guitar. Old furniture is often made with beautiful wood, once planed and sanded. Stringed instruments need good wood to resonate and sustain, in the musical sense, well. It makes it uniquely personal and the environment will love you.

  • Occasionally, I have a guitar that is unspoken for and is ready to ship!. Grab this opportunity now!

Repair it.

Expert instrument fixes. No drama.

  • Offering precise repair services for your guitars, basses, electrics or acoustics. I do all kinds of fixes & improvements from the broken headstock to fret jobs, set-ups, and more… see price list

  • For all other non-standard repairs and restorations a price will be quoted after intake. I’ve been repairing and restoring guitars for years now and I’d be glad to put this expertise at your service.

Kind Words

“The guitar sounds awesome. I do love that I am sure no tree has been felled just because I want to play guitar. But what's better; it’s the first my wife agrees to hang a guitar in the living room.”

—Phil Dixon

—Wim Van der Biest

“Thank you Jens for this KILLER instrument. It looks cool and it has lots of sweet little details that make this guitar really unique.”
