Brilliant service yet again......I needed a larger than normal neck blank in flamed maple and Crater were very happy to oblige......and it is a stunning piece of wood.....outstanding 👍
David Earp

I was looking for a new project and wanted a quality Strat at a decent cost. Found Crater Guitar Supplies had a 2-piece walnut one just all I needed. Purchased immediately, arrived at the other end of the UK in record time and its a real quality piece. I have the neck & bitsakit for it, needs some sanding a bit but that's what I wanted it for, to finish it off as I wanted. Now I'm planning another project for later .....so thanks Chris.

Top class tone woods, top class jigs, top class service. Can’t fault them at all.
Chris Southern

called Chris for advice on availability of Idigbo for a guitar body and neck as I want to build a Rickenbacker 325 style guitar. Chris was able to source and send me the blanks within a couple of days. even planed the pieces to my requirements. totally recommend Crater Guitar Supplies and I'll use them again.
