Rebranding soon. I've had way too many people tell me that they thought Gung-Ho Guitars was some Chinese knockoff stuff because of the name. And the more I think about it, it is kinda cheesy. When I first started, I used the name Garlan- my son's first and middle name abbreviated- Garret Lanning. At the moment its a toss up between Garlan and Parish Guitars. With Garlan, I can still use my G/cleff note design.

A little progress. It was a cleaner break than it looked. Now I need to build a spline jig. The binding repair is gonna be a pain

Didnt expect to see this one again. Took a lil tumble off a wall hanger. Thought maybe it could be a basic glue job. Nope. Only thing holding it together was the binding. Stevie Stiles wont let me rest

If you or someone you know is interested in doing some fretboard cnc work, hit me up. Im looking for a small run about 10 to 20 fretboards. I have the design. Just need the fretboard inlay carved and the inlays themselves. I will provide all materials, ship to you, and cover return shipping.

Non commissioned builds (whatever I happen to be throwing together) will be listed with prices once complete. Commissioned builds (you choose everything) require a non refundable 30% deposit. This helps cover the cost of sourcing and acquiring the materials. Random builds do not necessarily have a specific color or hardware/electronics decision made. These builds just flow and its usually the last aspect that I make a decision on. I WILL NOT use a copyrighted headstock. Please do not ask. If you want a true clone of a big name instrument, im not your guy. Unless a specific brand is requested, I will typically use Guyker, Hipshot, TonePros hardware and EMG actives.
