Eternal Guitars & Hot Rod Pickups

Eternal Guitars is a one-stop professional workshop offering repairs and set-up work, custom wound pickups and refinishing plus one-off custom guitars and our authentically aged replica electric guitars. We also specialise in vintage restoration work on solid body electric and acoustic instruments.

Our custom built instrument use the highest quality components and hardware available, our own handmade pickups and genuine nitrocellulose lacquer. Usually built to order, we also occasionally build a few for stock and they can be viewed by appointment.

Necks are shaped to the customers preference of back profile and radius and fitted with high quality Dunlop fretwire and clay dot markers (on rosewood fingerboards) before finishing in a paper thin vintage tint nitrocellulose lacquer which is aged to suit the model or customers requirements.
We use Gotoh and Kluson hardware which is aged to match the chosen wear level for the body and neck. Scratchplates are Bakelite or standard plastic and also aged to taste. I use my own Eternal Guitar/Hot Rod pickups exclusively which are built to offer superior tone using the best parts available – they come with period correct cloth hook-up wire and the covers are also aged to taste.
