    Lee is a consummate professional. I am on my second bass...he never disappoints. Excellent work!!!!…read moreHis communication is second to none!!! Living in Atlanta I have ZERO ISSUES sending any instrument across the country for his artistry. Highly recommend!!!!

    GMW's history dates back to the mid-1980s and was initially formed by a team of founder Lee Garver…read moreand well known luthier Neal Moser, who had worked with BC Rich, Wayne Charvel among other well known guitar makers in California. At that time at least 50% of guitars in rock were made in California with notable exception Kramer, of Neptune, NJ and, of course, Gibson. GMW initially became known for repainting, customizing and refurbishing guitars but at some point GMW moved into hand-made custom guitar production as a boutique guitar maker. About fifteen years ago, Moser left to form his own company and Lee remained to run GMW and build guitars on his own with a small staff. Having dealt with Lee on two custom guitar orders I can honestly say he's a tremendous guy and a pleasure to do business with. Old school by nature, custom orders get custom attention with phone calls and emails. The client is never ignored or felt like a number. Communication is quick and timely and Lee responds to email in a matter of minutes. I've had him return emails to me at 8am EST when he is on west coast time. From order and initial deposit to completion, build time can vary substantially. My first build was a Charvel-style single humbucker super-strat that took roughly three months. The other project, just completed, is a telecaster that took a total of nine months due to detailed work on the neck - stainless frets and trapezoid inlays. Quality is unsurpassed at GMW. There is no assembly line production unlike say, Carvin, there is true hand construction including assembly and final setup by Lee himself. Painting is done by staff and GMW is known for custom paint jobs that larger guitar makers either can't or will not undertake. Prices are very reasonable by custom guitar standards. I would guess 50% of the cost of a Jackson or an ESP custom order. Tremendous bang for your money. You will not be disappointed. Check out gmwguitars.com for more information.
