Each one is a unique, custom-built piece made to order for individual clients, along with original models designed and built to my own specifications. This product gallery includes both currently available instruments and past commissions that are no longer for sale, which I hope can serve as inspiration for new custom builds or designs that draw from, or refine, what you see here.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Every instrument is entirely handcrafted using premium, certified tonewoods, with no automated machinery or prefabricated parts involved. It usually takes 8\u201310 weeks to complete a guitar or bass, and up to 4 months for an archtop instrument. <\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Reinterpretations of great classics, alongside original Shank Instruments designs \u2014 all of these instruments are handcrafted as unique, one-of-a-kind pieces in my luthier workshop. I find it incredibly rewarding to create \u201cspecial\u201d replicas with unique features requested by my clients.
