Payment & Shipping Information
Should you see a guitar you like, you can simply & easily pay using Paypal. Just use the Paypal "buy now" button & select the appropriate amount depending on whether you are collecting, you require UK shipping or you live in the EU
Occasionally, when people live in remote areas of the UK, the courier cost can be considerably more than the figure I have given. If this proves to be the case I will email you regarding this with the extra cost as a Paypal invoice. If you then decide not to buy, I will refund your Paypal payment immediately.
If you decide you wish to buy without Paypal, you can email me at this email address
and payment can be arranged either by bank transfer or by cheque. Most of my customers use a direct bank transfer which is quick & easy. I am happy to send my details to you and once payment has been received, I will ship by insured courier (Usually Parcelforce,UPS or DHL) the next working day
Lastly, some of my customers like to visit & collect their guitars. This is most welcome & payment by either of the above methods or by cash is very acceptable.
Important note
Paypal is expensive for me & if you choose not to use it, I will always happily include a set or two of strings to say "thank you"
