Switchcraft Toggle Switch - Gold

When you have decided on the model and specifications of your dream guitar or bass, you can either place the order online, or call us to discuss any details or specific questions/requests. Once your build has been finalized, a minimum of a 50% deposit is required to start the build.  If you’ve purchased the guitar outright from us – this deposit does not apply. 

From the time you have placed your order or deposit, you have two weeks to make any changes. After that, all specifications are final. Actual build time is based on the exact options chosen, but typically our build time is about four months.

Month 1

• After the deposit is made, you will have two weeks to make any changes.
  
  
• Once the all details have been finalized, all preliminary woodworking is started.

Month 2

• Due to the nature of nitrocellulose lacquer, the guitars are allowed to cure for four weeks.

Month 3
