Post-Retirement

Retirement turns out to be a skill I am not ready to work on. I spent a year trying it out, and let us speak of it no more, at least for the time being.

I am, however, interested in streamlining my ordering process. For many years I have offered three guitar sizes at different prices, all with a common trim package, plus a price structure for just about any option one could think of. There was also a vague down-scale model called WRX, pronounced "Works", and intended for the musician who wanted the goods w/o the bling.

As of now I will have one price for any "Standard" guitar and that can include a cutaway, sound port, body wedge, or MultiScale, at the customer's option. Some of my more rare and exotic woods will increase the price, and the case will be at my cost +10%, as is shipping.

WRX also can also be any size, but will not have any options at all beyond wood choices, tonal target, and size. The WRX trim package is simpler, but the construction is identical to my mainstream work. Nothing is missing that I believe is essential to a first quality guitar.

While I reserve the right to change the details of my business methods at any time, I plan to keep this structure for at least a year from today, which is Feb. 20, 2023.

WRX -- $12k Standard -- $18K

Typical guitar features include:

H. Mahogany/Indian Rosewood/Jatoba back and sides	Wood bindings w/mitered purflings
EuroSpruce or Adirondack Spruce soundboard	Back center strip matching body bindings (quite a few choices)
Honduras Mahogany Neck	MOP or Abalone logo/side dots/fingerboard inlays
Ebony fingerboard w/Ebony or body matched binding	Choice of Waverly or Schertler or Schaller tuners.
Ebony bridge w/inlayed ebony (or other!) pins	Oil varnish finish (applied by myself)
Hide glue construction where possible	I am a fan of the Visesnut Case.

Guitars labeled "WRX" are simpler and originally less expensive. . . but otherwise equal to my mainstrem work.

My typical guitar will exceed most people's expectations of a handmade guitar.

Prices are US dollars FOB Petaluma, CA. Sales Tax will be added in California.

I have been relying upon personal contact, telephone conversation, and email, both to establish the details and price of your instrument, and to clarify any issues around my concept and competence as a Luthier.
