What custom guitar commissions are you expecting delivery on in 2021?

[Rwpierce]

I have a Legeyt CL coming in March.

Commissioned first guitar with Bruce Sexauer last year and the experience was great but more importantly the guitar is absolutely stellar.

Possibly Circa 000c Maple but it may end up in 2022.

Now that’s what I call a Brondel Brofest[emoji41]. All kidding aside that’s an extraordinarily robust list. All great builders and a Humphreys to boot. Love my expresso 15, line out to my QSC mixer and Q8’s for a phenomenal plugged in acoustic sound.

Bruce Sexauer is finishing me a small jumbo asymmetric gorgeous piece of art right now (JB16 Italian ozzyblackwood) and I’ve already placed a deposit for a second one later in the year.

So please put Bruce down for 2...

I guess I am the person Bruce was referring to on page 1.

These will be my 11th and 12th guitars from Bruce. They are all absolutely on another level of guitars compared to anything else I have ever heard or played.

Yeah, I'm not messing around this year!

I'm new to AGF and I'm expecting a MadRose/EuroSpruce guitar from Bruce Sexauer around summer time. It's my first custom guitar from an individual luthier, so needless to say I'm super excited.

Welcome to the forum Andrew. What a great first post, announcing a great custom build!

[Flemming]

A Kostal MDW in the beginning of the year.
Later a Tyler Robbins R2.
And perhaps a Leo Buendia 00(don't excactly know when the build will begin)

What a great list with more than a few luthiers set up for a busy 2021. I probably have purchased my last custom built guitar since I am heading into retirement but I will enjoy the ensuing build threads immensely. My custom Kramer that I took delivery of in July of 2019 just keeps sounding better and better. Congrats to all of you for taking the plunge.
Best,
Jayne

It looks like there are 55 instruments in the queue for 2021 so far by 38 different builders.

I have a Heinonen Cedar Madagascar SJ with a lot of Abalone coming this Spring. I can't figure out how to post pictures here, but although it's still in pieces, it's already a knockout. I will soon be going from four hours practice per day to 7, and maybe ten. This is my first custom, and working with Drew is a pleasure, and everything he does is pure art. No wonder Jim Olson was happy working with him. He's a super nice, very knowledgable guy and a pure artist. Every time I see a new part coming along it's like Christmas morning when I was 12, and that was 51 years ago.
If nyone needs a T. Drew Heinonen recommendation, I give him ten stars in every way.
