As from September 2017 My standard non-custom Instruments that include Kravik Lyres, 11 string kanteles, Stick Dulcimers, Ukuleles are made in small batches and will be listed on etsy.com, message me if you are interested and I can let you know when the next instruments are available.
I build these standard instruments alongside my Custom instruments often in batches of 2 or 3 to keep costs down.
For Custom instruments or for more expensive complicated instruments I have to allow extra time for research, sourcing materials. Some instruments need to be built in stages, where wood is gradually acclimatized to become an instrument, Hollowed out lyres and Harps and also guitars for example benefit from this extra time.
As of January 2017 with new CITES changes I will no longer use Rosewood, bubinga or African blackwood for exported instruments, I was using plantation grown Rosewood but this is now affected for export instruments. Currently using chacate preto on fingerboards with ebony and bog oak on custom instruments.
Ordering
For Custom orders I now require a non returnable deposit of
10% to reserve a place on my order book, to
cover materials. I will let you know when I start construction, I often post pictures on instagram of my work in progress. The final payment plus delivery costs are always payable before
delivery.
Delivery overseas is now by federal Express, here in the UK by
next day
delivery, royal mail or courier.
Most of my standard instruments are handled through etsy payment system, for deposits for custom orders I can do Bank Transfer payments or Paypal, at the moment I can
only
accept cheques in the Uk with Pounds Sterling.
Please feel free to email if you have any questions!
I run my business mostly online, working from home,
My workshop is being re-organised over the next year and may be able to offer meetings by arrangement, hoping to build some stock for 2018 so I have examples to show
