HARVESTER - bespoke guitars - repairs - modifications

* visit the new HARVESTER PAGE on fetishguitars.com - a beautifully designed, non-profit site featuring an overview of 'different' guitar design from around the world, focusing on Italian oddities of the 1950s and 60s and now featuring my latest work with aluminium hybrid neck guitars.

Harvester #27 Full photoshoot here.

The combination of the Antonio thru-metal neck design & Novak P90 pickups with my favourite Hagström tremolo is spectacular. Video footage soon.

I'm now taking orders for the next batch of these aluminium hybrid guitars.

From $2600 plus shipping - one third down as deposit, 5 months til completion.

I'm enjoying playing with the details on these Wandre Pioli tributes and welcome all the feedback that I receive from players and aluminium obsessives around the world.

I'm also enjoying playing the prototype alongside my Travis Bean and customer's metal-necked guitars here in the workshop. I'll try to capture some of that sustaining shimmer on video soon !

* Wooden necked instruments from $2250

Thanks, AP

A word about ordering a guitar from Harvester :

Wooden necked custom instruments starting from $2250 including a case.

Serie Antonio guitars with hybrid aluminium neck from $2600 ( hardtail 2 pickups, solidbody ) including a case.

I require 1/3 of the build price up front. Completion takes 5 months, balance of payment is due before delivery.

Delivery worldwide via Fedex/UPS insured is at the customer's expense and currently averages around $200 - $250 to Europe/USA.

This price covers a totally handcrafted instrument in the style represented in many of the photos on this site, with a hard tail bridge. Complicating/time-consuming factors simply add increments to the build price, they also add fun to the whole process for us both. Tremolo systems & other hardware are added to the base-price at cost.

I am happy to push each unique guitar project into new territory and don't charge extra for left-handed instruments. Feel free to contact me with an idea and I'll let you know when I can commence your guitar-build and together we can hammer out the details.

I think I have enough of my work shown here and on my flickr site to give an idea of what I'm into guitar-wise ... it's a niche and it's a pleasure to have carved out a little corner of the guitarmaking, guitarfixing world - hopefully without repeating the same-old same-old designs.
