Kavanagh Customs

WELCOME TO KAVANAGH CUSTOMS

KavanaghCustoms is a small UK-based guitar luthier and repair/upgrade workshop focusing primarily on vintage Fender® and Gibson® electric guitars, and producing quality replacement and aftermarket parts.

Based to the North of Greater Manchester, we have been going strong for several years and between the members of our team, we have well over a hundred years of guitar playing, repairing and restoring experience.

Well-known, well-reviewed and with an exciting list of clients that include many well-known guitar greats, we have only settled ourselves online properly since mid-2006 and now offer a selection of our guitars, and our renowned quality placement bodies and necks for sale right here on this website through our online store. We also run occasional eBay auctions and maintain a small eBay store, although for the most comprehensive list of currently available parts, our webstore is the best place to look first.

We build some of the highest-quality handmade bodies and necks available in the UK today and are proud to be the only regular supplier of real nitrocellulose finishes, as well as specialising in original DuPont and Fender Custom Shop colours. Stock changes frequently so if you don't see exactly what you're after, bookmark us and come back later, or drop us an email and we will be more than happy to offer no-obligation advice and can build virtually any stringed instrument you can dream of.

To get a better idea of who we are and what we do, please see the about us section, or see the gallery for photographs of just some of the work we've carried out. Also be sure to check out our website shop to see what we have available right now.

Thanks for visiting and please feel free to get in touch if there's anything we can do to help you - our pledge is to offer the best customer service and the highest quality workmanship available in the UK, or anywhere.
