Many ‘custom shop’ guitars are actually just bolted together from existing components – and can be very expensive. But a genuine hand-made instrument gives the satisfaction of owning something truly unique, and may not cost as much as you think. Do get in touch to discuss designing your dream guitar.

Custom made body by Marten Korzinski.

Marten Korzinski Guitars

Why take two (or three) guitars to a recording session when just one can give all the tones you need? The Marten Korzinski Doubletake’s unique Telebucker pickups deliver up to eight great tones in a classic solid-body shape.

Replica instruments

If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a vintage guitar but were horrified by the prices they command, do give me a call. I make replica electric guitars right here in the workshop. These aren’t just bolted together from bought-in components, but are all made entirely by hand. I carefully apply an aged finish and also use genuine aged hardware from Fender, as well as authentic branding components and rear serial plate.

Below is a fine pair of vintage replicas from the workshop - a '65 Hard Tail Strat in blonde and a late 50's black Telecaster. Built and aged in the woorkshop during the Coronavirus shutdown. All period correct Fender hardware, necks, bodies, and finishing by myself.
