I'm beginning to take commissions for my custom guitar builds. The reason I'm taking commissions so early in my career is because I'm unable to keep funding my builds and upgrading my tools by myself, so I've turned to the public to ask for your help to give me experience in return for a rad custom guitar.
This is a small-scale system to keep my luthier experience going. If you have any questions, email me.
Thank you for your support.
This is not a professional shop — this is a small-scale run at building guitars. My builds have the possibility of minor imperfections. If you're looking for machine-like absolute perfection, this is not the place for you.
Customize your guitar using the builder below to get a cost estimate.
Hit "Send Commission Request" to open a pre-filled email to makaguitars@gmail.com. Indicate you're requesting a guitar in the subject line with all customization details.
We will figure out the remaining details through email, then I'll send a material downpayment via Venmo.
I'll send a 2nd payment request for labor ($400) and a shipping fee depending on where you are. Then it ships to you.
Select your options below. Cost updates live. When you're done, send your request directly to my email.
