West Valley Custom

Inspired by the Golden Era of electric guitars, I’ve developed a single model which embodies the bold and rebellious spirit of those times. Combining design elements from the greatest guitar manufacturers of old and new ideas from modern innovators, this guitar is an artistic statement and lightening rod for creativity.

Lee Kiernan, IDLES

“Impeccably crafted guitars, some of the best I’ve ever played. The guitar he made me is a masterpiece and almost plays itself. It’s so good.”
