Instruments
We make a variety of custom built stringed instruments from our temperature and humidity controlled workshops in New Zealand. Using a selection of native timbers and quality fittings we can craft traditional instruments like acoustic guitars and violins to mandolins and bousoukis. We may even do something more unusual!
All instruments are supplied with a hard shell case.
