Halo dari Jepara – Custom Hand-Carved Guitars 🎸

[Donyahmed]

That's badass man! That's amazing you do that all by hand. (We've had some other, uh, instances of things not being as they first appeared.)

Thank you, maybe next time I will share the process

Do you ever include any "Easter Eggs?"

For example, this artist, Al Hirshfeld, always signed his daughter's name, 'Nina', somewhere in his designs. In this one, it's down on the left, at the end of Brad's & Steven's hair.

Just wondering...

never, I have confidence that if other people see the carved guitar I made, they will know that it was made by me.

Of course. I didn't mean to sound like I'm picking apart your work (if it did, I apologize.) On the contrary, I find it fascinating. Which is why I'm asking so many questions.

no, you don't need to apologize my friend.. your suggestion is very good, but I haven't thought about it.. I believe your intentions are very good

Don't downplay yourself, man, you put time and effort into something on got great results, that's the definition of talent!

 

[TSJMajesty]

So do you have prices on like, a "commission" piece?

Say I was to send you this PRS SE Tremonti that I don't like, along with a picture of what I have in mind, and say, "Carve it up," is that something you'd consider, and could price? Or do you just create your own instruments, and then offer them for sale?

In other words, do you allow potential customers to request something specific?

Very cool, welcome to the forum!

Interesting. Don’t go to all that trouble and then use budget hardware and pickups. You used the rail Floyd on one so go with that quality for the rest of the parts.

ok thank you, most of the guitars that I have completed are orders from someone/customer... for the guitar we will make it from start to finish, so you don't need to send your guitar, and of course you can give special specifications, models and carving motifs according to your wishes

OK, thank you for your suggestion... the hardware can be adjusted to the customer's wishes.
