Binford Luthiery Ltd

Binford Luthiery Ltd Binford Luthiery produces custom handmade stringed instruments, specialising in Jazz archtop guitars. Contact us for your dream instrument today.

From studying at Summit School of Guitar Building and Repair to working with Bob Benedetto to owning my own shop, I am committed to building quality stringed instruments. Although I've built ukuleles, acoustic flat tops, electric telecasters and electric basses, I am most passionate about building beautiful acoustic arch top jazz guitars. My guitars are notable by the use of natural wood colors an

d textures. I believe that guitars are art works of the most practical kind. Conscientious care is given to every instrument to ensure it looks and sounds beautiful.
