PRICING AND PHILOSOPHY  
 

All models (excluding Kitty Jay) are priced at £750-00 excluding case and shipping.

Kitty Jay is priced at £700

Included in the cost of all models is a £150-00 donation to a charity of my chosing.

How can I provide a handmade guitar at this price? All guitars are made in my spare time for my own relaxation. This is a hobby and whilst I continue to enjoy it I will pass on my enjoyment at these prices. This is a non-profit making exercise.

Why is there a charitable donation component? For some time now I have been told that I am not charging enough for my guitars. However, as I have already stated above, I'm not trying to make money for myself. The solution was to increase the price but put the extra towards a charity. Every customer will receive an individual dated receipt to show the donation that has taken place.

If I fit a pickup you can provide one or I will source one for you and fit it at cost. I don't have a deal with guitar case manufacturers which means you can get one for the same price as I can. I can buy one for you or you can provide one for shipping or collect the guitar in person. I usually make guitars one at a time, no batch processing. You may have to wait a little longer for it but you can rest assured that it will have been given my full attention.

Woodburn Guitars are made from premium grade tonewoods obtained from sources in the UK, Europe and America. All guitars are made with solid woods. Whilst this page provides basic information it should be noted that all guitars are one-off instruments and will be made specially for you. Please discuss your ideas with me as any model can be customised to request. Changes may sometimes, but not always, incur additional charges.
