Sorry for the delay – it’s been a busy week. All the photos and cataloguing of the new shipment is complete and (almost) all new items are listed on the site. Later today/tomorrow I’ll post a roundup of the new products.

DHL have collected the shipment and it is on its way. Current ETA is Wednesday, so keep those fingers crossed!
Spent a few days this week tweaking the look and functionality of the Axecaster store. Nothing ground breaking on the appearance side, just some minor adjustments and additions to make the store less cluttered on the screen. Functionality however has been improved. We have now reintroduced the Paypal Express checkout button, so customers may pay […]
Our (very large) Mighty Mite order is being prepared for dispatch from the US. There is a small chance it could ship today, but to be safe we’ll just say it should arrive some time next week! Fingers crossed!
A little delayed, but our hardware shipment is now here and all products posted in the store. Out of stock items are now in stock – Gretsch G Arrow knobs, nickel Wilkinson Deluxe Machine Heads, Wilkinson Vintage Telecaster bridges – and we have a few new items. (Sorry, not necks and bodies yet, they are […]

It started off as a Custom Shop Limited Edition, then a more “affordable” version was introduced as part of Fender’s “Telebration” series, and now finally Fender is producing a Mexican made “standard” version (to be released in the UK later […]

Unfortunately the Mighty Mite shipment has been delayed twice already but is now expected around August 20th (fingers crossed). The hardware shipment, with a few new lines, is expected around the first […]

It has narrower string spacing and therefore different through hole locations. The changed string spacing can be attributed to a more modern playing style I guess – less […]
A little update on Esquire #1 after a week of living/playing. I’m still very happy with it! I’m used to my US Std partscaster at 8 1/2 lbs, so I thought the very light Esquire may feel like a toy. Not so. The weight is fantastic, and the guitar is well balanced. Like the US […]
The main picture was taken in natural light, the detail pictures under artificial daylight bulbs. The detail pictures are a better representation of the colour. Please excuse the fingermarks! So what have I learned? Most importantly, plan ahead. I could easily have finished the entire guitar in 3 weeks if I had been more focused […]
