We usually use Wildwood Mfg. or Musikraft bodies and necks, along with the occasional small-builder bodies made from pine, alder and lightweight paulownia. We generally use Lindy Fralin, Klein, D. Allen, Kuwabara and/or Throbak pickups; Glendale Parts, and other high-quality parts for our guitar builds. Custom orders can also get Don Mare pickups if desired (depending on availability). Custom paintjobs on some models are made possible by the amazing psychedelic craft of Willard Snow. Join the select group of original owners of the Bunnynose Guitars Willardcasters !! Each guitar is a unique instrument, there isn’t another one like it anywhere. It was built to be loved by someone not looking for an anonymous, factory-perfect production-line product. Inherent in the process may be some cosmetic imperfections, although structurally, each guitar is a solid player for a working musician. My design concept is to create guitars that look like they'd been kept under the bed for twenty or thirty years, have been your favorite and have acquired a well-worn visual appearance, but clean; I almost never do 'relicing'. It has been built to amaze. Some guitars will be set up by an artist to intonate correctly and play with comfortable action. That said, most people have their own idea of an optimal setup so some of the guitars will have their price reduced by $100 so you can have your own guy set it up the way you like it.Your guitar will come with a statement of the full particulars of your guitar; i.e., body source, neck info, pickup info, electronics info, etc. Should you lose it, you can always contact us for a digital facsimile. These guitars are sold ‘as-is’ with no warranties, except: Bunnynose Guitars warrants repairs for any manufacturer’s defects of any original electrical parts (pickups, switch, pots, wiring) for six monthsfrom date of purchase, unless the damage has been done in the process of attempting to augment the originally sold guitar. All transportation costs will be borne by the buyer. Warranty does not apply to finish to the body or neck, or to any issues pertaining to the neck itself.Email me if you have a guitar you've been dreaming of owning. We can build it for you at a price you'll like.
