There here! The first 2 Surfers. One is alder body with maple neck, the other alder with rosewood. Both have Klein Epic 62 pickups. We have changed many small details that you won’t see at first, but they all improve tone and help the guitar stay in tune better. Check our Facebook photoalbum for many of these details. We will try to update the website as soon as possible for more information about these guitars. They are prototypes, meaning that we want input from you. Come and check these guitars and tell us what you think.

We tried to avoid it as long as we could but this weekend we will raise the price for our BeBop with 100 euro. This is partly to anticipate the higher tax rate that will be in effect Oct 1st this year. We have a waiting list for BeBop, so all new orders we receive will be delivered after Oct 1st. That’s why we have to raise the price in advance. By Oct 1st we will also have to raise our other prices. Another thing is that for years we haven’t raised prices and always took the extra cost, due to inflation and increased costs for raw materials, ourselves. We can’t keep on doing that, we have to calculate it into our prices. Since inflation is the bank’s hidden tax, it means that this 100 euro extra is mostly tax money. The basses we have in stock are still for sale for the old price.
