Hand-Made Guitars with a
Hands-On Approach
There are no CNC milling machines in the Bischoff workshop. It's for this reason a Bischoff guitar can truly be called "hand made." Gordy's hands touch, feel and guide him through every step of the process. And a custom-built guitar can be just as intimate for the one ordering the guitar. From choosing the right wood from Gordy's quality selections, to the inlays and designs that dress the instrument and make it truly distinct, the creation of a Bischoff guitar is very personal and unique for every customer.
The Inception
An interview with Gordy is the best way to initiate a custom order. All in-house wood has been hand selected from the suppliers stock. The primary criteria are resonance and appearance. From this choice stock Gordy will tailor his selection of woods for your guitar after writing the order with you.
The Options
The ordering process itself has several different facets and ties directly into the style of guitar you request. There are many ways to personalize your instrument to make it your own, such as sound-hole rosette customization, or personalized inlays.
The Process
A $500 down payment is required to hold a position on a waiting list. Half of the projected cost of the instrument is due when work is set to begin. The remaining balance is due upon completion.
The End Result
The creation of a Bischoff guitar is very personal and unique for every customer. Each instrument tells a story that can be retold for generations.
