Master tops for guitars (waiting list):

After careful consideration, we have decided, starting in 2025, to change the way we offer master grade tops. This means that in 2025 we will no longer keep a waiting list for master grade tops. 

 We are currently working on a new system that would enable us to distribute these rare and valuable guitar tops to our customers as equitably as possible. We will inform you by the end of the year via our website how we will be offering these tops for sale.

We ask for your understanding.
