May 25,2024Bought lute-making tools for my guitar, I had to work on frets. On the website tools are shown as verified by an expert, strong, long lasting, accurate and adapt for high quality work... so I started my work... the tool for the staightness isn't staight, the tool for filing wears out very fast, the tool for shaping frets has damage them. I have to admit that the only tool that works well is the polishing gums After few searches I found all the same tools as Guitar Fabric on Aliexpress for half the price ! I haven't test guitar kits but I will not buy one with this seller. So in the end I bought real lute-making tools from another serious and professional seller Reply to the reply : I'm not saying that you buy on Aliexpress, but that your tools are the same, certainly your Chinese supplier also sells his items on Aliexpress. Maybe you are just the seller and you trust your "expert", but I can assure you that your luthier-making tools are not good. I wrote reviews on your website for each tool I bought... only the positive review for the polishing gums was published... strange isn't it? The tools I received do not have your logo engraved on them, unlike those shown on your website, maybe you've stopped having them engraved to save some money. Perhaps I was unlucky in having a tool that was not straight, but the sanding block with so little and bad sanding paper... I sould better had to go to a DIY shop, buy a piece of aluminium section, sanding sheets for metal and double face tape... And the crowning file... it's a toy ! look at its relief, it imitates a diamond file but it's not one, impossible to file with it and the 4 faces do not correspond to any frets crowning profiles. I would be curious to see a video with your "expert" carrying out a planimetry on his own guitar using the tools on your website. (Especially the part with the crowning file) And finally, I haven't received any emails from you... well, only one... the invoice ! Maybe it's time to change "expert" team

May 04,2024Very good and fast shipping. The guitar kit (ES335) is very well made, easy to build (it was my first kit, but I've already done some works on other guitars). Nice wood. The neck is well fretted, just need a little planification on two frets. The pickups sounds good; the hardware is decent, but the guitar can be upgraded (I've already change the tuners), and . But it's ok and worth the price, because the quality of the body and neck is very good. So, very good experience!

Apr 28,2024I recently assembled a Firebird kit with gold hardware, a nod to the classic Gibson Firebird which I admire. The fretboard, despite a few minor imperfections, did not affect playability and maintained a satisfactory straightness. The neck profile is on the thicker side, which suits my preference. However, the frets are notably short and have shown significant wear after just six months of use, indicating a need for refretting in the near future. The tuning machines initially included with the kit were subpar, making tuning stability a challenge. I replaced them with moderately priced locking tuners from VParts, which improved the situation. The nut required considerable filing but proved to be of decent quality once adjusted. The body of the guitar was the highlight of the kit for me. Crafted from solid mahogany, it provided a robust foundation for the instrument. I personally added arm and belly cuts, which was a rewarding hands-on experience. The finish, achieved with sealer and nitrocellulose lacquer, resulted in an attractive open-pore look. I opted not to polish the body due to limited resources, but the gold hardware compensates by adding the necessary luster. Most of the original hardware was not up to standard, so I retained only the knobs, the bridge temporarily, and the tune-o-matic, which I plan to replace with a Gotoh model soon. The stock pickups were lackluster, prompting me to invest in a new pair of mini humbuckers from Q Pickups and a new 3-way switch. These upgrades have significantly enhanced the guitar's tonal warmth, complementing the mahogany body. In conclusion, building a kit guitar is a journey worth undertaking for the enjoyment and learning experience it provides. While the base instrument may not meet high sonic standards, investing in quality components can transform it into a reliable and performance-ready guitar. The personal connection to the instrument grows with each modification and hour spent playing it.

Apr 12,2024Pour un premier achat je suis très déçu par guitare fabric qui ne m'a pas envoyé le bon article de ma commande (que je n' ai toujours pas reçu à ce jour) . En plus à chaque mails envoyés ce n'est jamais la même personne qui me répond, cela n'avance pas et on me laisse sans nouvelles pourtant j' ai renvoyé le mauvais produit dés que j' ai reçu le bon de retour et je suis bloqué pour finaliser mon projet. Donc je ne souhaite plus faire appel à guitare fabric à l' avenir et préfère aller dans une autre entreprise plus disponible pour les clients et aussi plus sérieuse. Cordialement.
