70’s P-Style Ash Bass

dscf9255 A beautiful bass modelled on the 70’s P-Basses’ made by Guitar Repairers lurker Will Beckwith. A pur nitrocellulose walnut finish over a beautifully figured ash body. A lovely maple neck with a light flame through it and all high quality chrome hardware, it supports Wilkinson high output ceramic pickups voiced for a vintage tone.

It has a bright chiming top end with a sweet midrange and should appeal to all P-Bass lovers out there

62′ Style Roadkill Bass

dscf9264 Another addition to our Roadkill series, proffesionally distressed by master-basser William Beckwith. This bass was made in the image of a 62′ style P-Bass and brings all the character and tone of the real deal.

A nice barky midrange with a tight top end thanks to a maple neck with rosewood fingerboard gives this a true worn in vintage sound.

Harmony Moonlight Parlor Guitar

dscf9197 This is a Genuine 1934 Harmony Moonlight parlour guitar completely restored with a maple fretboard and birch back and sides.

This one has a lovely bright top end on it and plays very smoothly. Very comfortable guitar and quite loud for its size. These stenciled guitars go like cookies so be quick

1910-1915 Harp Parlor Guitar

dscf9184 This little baby came to us in pieces but right away we saw its potential. Completly structurally reinforced, oversprayed in nitrocellulose vintage tint lacquer, compensated and setup this baby is now restored to its former glory!

A sharp V-neck, light resonant construction and brazilian rosewood back and sides reminds us that this is a beautiful guitar from an almost forgotten era. Surprisingly loud, a bright top end with a nice clear tone and not to mention bucket loads of warmth and resonance.

Ratfink Roadkill Strat

dscf9139 here it is, our latest prize possession. Forget roadworn, forget relic, Roadkill is where its at. Proffessionally distressed by us here at the guitar repairers this guitar is a killer!

A vintage style neck that nobody has been able to believe, this thing plays like a dream. Sporting standard strat pickups we don’t know what it is but this thing sounds sensational. It has that hard bluesy crunch but also a bitey top end making it one of the most versatile strats we’ve ever put together.

Kasuga Mandolin

dscf9224 This lovely Kasuga F5 Style flatback mandolin has a lovely sweet tone. Made in the late 70’s, this mandoling barely needed any work from us to bring it up to scratch.

If you’re an F5 lover than this one is worth a look
