FOR SALE & SPECIALS

The bulk of my work is custom commissions to meet specific customer requests, however I do have some instruments built to spec available from time to time or partly prepared kits that can be finished to meet your specs. If you dont see what you are looking for here, don't hesitate to contact me. I'd be happy to discuss your needs and provide you a price for what you're looking for. Currently my delivery time for a travel instrument is around 6 to 8 weeks and for full size instruments about 4 to 6 months.
