CHECK OUT THE BEFORE AND AFTER PICS...

YOU ARE NOT BUYING THE GUITAR PICTURED, YOU ARE BUYING A SERVICE
to make your guitar look like these.

We can make that new guitar look and feel like a well loved vintage guitar.

Hey, we'd all love to have a 50's Les Paul, but who has $50,000 laying around.
Now you can turn your Les Paul LPJ, Studio,Special, or Melody Maker  into that old guitar, exactly how YOU want it.

It's easy...simply pick what options you would like. We'll send you the total price , and you click on "make an offer" for that price.

Next, mail us the guitar WITH A PRE PAID RETURN SHIPPING LABEL

...you pick the color and the amount of relic that you want...and within one month you'll have it back...better than ever!

Choose from "closet queen" light relic, to "been around the world twice" heavy relic.

$150 to relic the existing finish on the body and neck,
(this includes lacquer checking if you like that look)

$200 to paint nitro (your color choice) over your existing finish and relic it to look like a two tone relic, plus relic the neck

OR for $250, we will remove the existing finish on the top and re-finish it in the color of your choice,this includes a full relic job including the neck.

Add $50 to relic all of the hardware, such as tuners and knobs etc...

Add $75 to paint "faux" binding around the top edge and along the fretboard

Add $50 to apply a new headstock decal

Add $75 to remove the paint from the back and neck of the guitar, and re-paint with nitro and relic.

***You are responsible for all shipping charged as well***

We use all nitrocellulose lacquer for that vintage feel and tone.

You can tell when someone just takes a grinder or belt sander to a guitar and calls it a "relic" (gross) but my guitars go through a long process to replicate authentic wear and patina.

Any questions please ask!

Let us make you that guitar that you always wanted...

WE DO TWEED CASES AND AMPS TOO!

Happy jamming!

Here are some testimonials about guitars We've sold

"I am in awe of the craftsmanship on display here in this instrument...it has such character...I fell in love instantly upon placing this beauty into my hands. The tone is out of this world, the neck pocket is precise, resonance throughout the instrument and the noiseless pickup set is spectacular. Dax is a top notch builder and his relic work is just phenomenal. I knew when I first laid eyes on this Tele it had to be mine and it's showing me everyday how true it is! Thank you Dax."

"Dax , many thanks for the awesome telecaster , a first class job all the way. 100% top notch work , everything I hoped it would be is what I received."

"Dax, this is perfect! Exactly what I wanted. Love it.  I'll be showing it to a bunch of guys, I'm sure you'll be getting some more work from that."

Excellent relic job! Guitar came on time in good condition and well-packed. Super value!"

"I took a chance on using Dax & Co and I'm so glad I did! Dax took a cheap Squire Strat and turned it into an absolute Gem!! The work he did on it is absolutely amazing, my guitar now looks like a 1956 Stratocaster! The neck and fretboard are silky smooth. Great Job! Looking forward to using your company again!"

"I own 12 teles including a Nash T52, various Fenders, 2 MJTs, and this guitar went straight to the top of the class. It looks killer and feels like it's actually 60 years old. Packed well, shipped fast."

“That's awesome!! You do amazing work!”

 “I can't get the image of your last Tele out of my head. It was gorgeous! Exactly the style I'd want!”
