Custom built,
one at a time.
handmade in Omaha, NEbraska
Vintage inspired instruments, but not beholden to tradition for the sake of tradition. Collector grade aesthetics and materials, but designed to be played and touched.
Standard models
You can find my standard spec instruments available for purchase through Reverb, at Lidgett Music in Council Bluffs, IA, at Fiddlers Green Music Shop in Austin, TX, or at Austin Vintage Guitar in Austin, TX.
Custom Commissioned instruments
If you would like to commission a custom build, send me a message to get the conversation started. A $500 deposit gets your order into the queue, 50% payment due when the build begins, 50% payment when the build is complete. You can see examples in the gallery. If you don’t see an option on the price list, just ask! For inquiries about instruments, cases, or other special projects, shoot me a message.
January 2023 Update:
The books are closed for 2023! Thank you all so much for your love and support, it means the world to me. To get on the waiting list for 2024, then please send me a message. -Micah
