Custom Line Of Hampton Guitars

We work with a number of guys that are building their own line of guitar. Reid Hampton is one of those. He had an idea for a guitar line that he has always wanted to build and approached us and we were able to work in the flesh what his vision was in his head.

This is the initial result of our working together.

Gavin Downie, Guitar Tech from New Zealand And His Guitars

This is piece of writing from Gavin Downie, one of our great customers. He had sent along the pic below a while back that showed all of his guitars hanging on a wall, including our LP Jr. ( see the lil red beauty right in the middle ) I sent him a quick email back and asked about the guitars, any stories behind them. I think it is cool the stories that come out.  I am interested in stuff like that.

This is  the pic that started it all…and what I got back from him about guitars. Gavin works with a lot of touring acts, in the land of the All Blacks….. Notice Mr. Gibbons in the pic at the bottom.

Love it.. Guitar AreGREAT!!

Erik Hansen’s SG Jr. Build

White SG Jr Guitar

Erik wrote to me a while back telling me about a guitar that he had years ago that he wished he had kept. It was an SG Jr., cherry stained. He wanted that guitar but updated and this time in a beautiful rich white.  so he bought a kit from us and went about building a legend. He documented the process.

And apparently the Lollar pick ups are fantastic.

This is a great read on how to make one of our kits.

Take a read. here’s a link to Erik’s build blog.
