How to do business with
me!
August 1, 2007
|
| After
40 years of making guitars
for
people I have tried a lot of methods, and the following is what works
the
best for me. |
- To secure a place in my queue,
and to
be
confident that I will remember everything you tell me, I will accept a
$500
retainer from you, which will be applied against the cost of the
instrument
we will then collaborate on the design of. The retainer locks in the
current price structure. The retainer is non-refundable as of August 1,
2007
- Upon reaching your start date,
and
assuming
the design/price has become agreed upon, the retainer will be brought
up to a
50%
deposit. For example if the guitar we had agreed upon was quoted to be
worth
$11000, you would then send me $5000 more.
- Your guitar would then be
complete and
ready
to be picked up or shipped in about six more weeks. Upon receiving your
guitar
you would then have 48 hours to decide that it was perfect in every way
imaginable,
and you would send the balance. There are other ways this might go at
the
end, but so far it has always gone this way.

Prices
are FOB Petaluma, CA. Sales Tax will be added in California. I
have been relying upon personal contact, telephone conversation, email,
both
to establish the details and price of your instrument, and to clarify
any
issues around my concept and competence as a Luthier. Please don't
hesitate
to call me, Bruce Sexauer,
