Detailed photo journal on exactly how I build em.

What goes into my "basic" T?

____________________________________________________________

elcome. I’m Ron Kirn, and I build custom guitars. My philosophy as I build them is, since they are custom, I let you choose what components you would like. It’s that simple.

I do things differently. For instance, if you have a favorite neck, pickups or whatever, I will gladly incorporate it into your new guitar. Or you may choose the components from which your guitar is created off an extensive list of components. Many made by the same exact manufacturers supplying the large guitar manufacturers.

For pricing, I don’t bury it somewhere obscure. A Tele type starts at $1500 and a Strat type starts at $1800. The final price depends on the choices you make, but rest assured, the difference in quality rests only in the components chosen. Close your eyes and you cannot tell the difference between the least expensive and a more exotic guitar.

Please read the details on exactly how I build 'em and why, peruse through the photos of others I have created, then let me know what I can do for you.
