Please research your countries import laws and import costs to avoid any surprises.
We will have a small amount of guitars a year available that you can order from the online store. These will be available for despatch with no build waiting time.
You can also send us an email to discuss a build just for you. I'm always happy to talk guitars, so feel free to get in touch with any questions.
The standard order procedure is once we have finalised the specifications and price quote, you and I will both sign off the order and allocate a build slot.
A non-refundable deposit of 50% is required to secure your order and your materials. The final balance is to be paid either before or upon completion of the instrument and prior to despatch of the instrument.
This varies depending on the specifications of the instrument and if any custom options are included. We are lucky to be consistently busy so
we aim to deliver a standard specification guitar in approximately 8 - 12 months. And a custom order in approximately 18-24 months.
We are always happy to service or set up your Seth Baccus Guitar. We are unable to take on general guitar repairs for other brands.
If you would like a quote for any servicing or setting up of your Seth Baccus Guitar, please feel free to get in contact with us.
We can even help organise the shipping to and from the workshop if you need it.
I can offer many custom options on my models, but I do not offer custom body shapes or copies of any other instruments.
I'm happy to work on custom finishes, custom inlays, custom control layouts, custom hardware options, and many more ways to personalise your instrument for you.
If you are an established artist looking to collaborate on a new guitar project, please get in touch to see what's possible.

We can offer a wide variety of finishes and lacquer types. Most commonly, you will see our guitars finished in a vintage formula nitro cellulose lacquer. These nitro finishes are available either aged or non-aged. We also offer high gloss modern style polyurethane or polyester finishes for a long-lasting dipped in glass look.
Satin finishes are also available in most of our standard colours.
We can also offer custom colour mixing, sparkles, holographic flakes and many more custom options. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any finish questions.
