Frequently Asked Questions

What are the shipping rates?

We offer free shipping on most items to metro areas in ACT, NSW, VIC, and QLD. If you are in a regional area we do offer great shipping rates, though it is often too expensive for us to offer free shipping. You can calculate shipping costs in the checkout and on item pages with your postcode.
Orders under $50 incur a minimum order fee to cover shipping.

Standard vs Express Shipping

Our shipping platform will automatically determine and display the Express or Standard shipping options that are available to you. If Express is not displaying, you're either located too far away from our store in Canberra, or the Standard shipping option will get it to you just as fast for the same price. Express shipping is 1-5 days, Standard 2-10 days depending on how far you are away from our store in Canberra.

What payment methods do you offer?

We offer secure checkout options like Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Zip Pay and Bank Deposit.
American Express payments are also accepted, although most AmEx transactions will require manual authorization after payment (Someone from the team will contact you to confirm the transaction after checkout)

Details
Handmade in Germany.

A brand-new model that combines a torrefied spruce top with a body made from larch, a timber that is rare for guitar construction but turned out to be perfectly suitable; not too hard but very firm and elastic. By a gentle smoking process, it becomes a visual delight with vibrant colours from rich gold to dark chocolate.

The active pickup system is discreetly fitted without any opening in the sides to preserve the subtle and natural aesthetics.

100% compliant to CITES regulations
