Wicked Guitars Announce Special Lefty Skervesen Run

Exciting news for Skervesen fans! Our friends over at Wicked Guitars are putting together a special left handed run of Skervesens!

Guitars available are Raptors, Shoggies and SkerveTENs – all in 6,7 and 8-string versions with both standard and multi-scale available.

The advantages to this run are plentiful. Build time should be quicker, and most importantly, the overall price will be lower than if you were to custom order the guitar yourself. I’m also assured by Bogumil at Skervesen that a top notch wood selection will be on offer for this special left handed run. As always, the guitars will be hand-built in Poland by Skervesen’s master-craftsmen.

Ordering Process:
1:) Deposit of 500 EUR (700 AUD, 530 USD) to reserve build spot.  Books will open 26th November.

2:) Once your deposit is paid you will have at least a couple of weeks to decide what spec options you want from all available. There will be plenty of time to ask questions and see examples before locking in your spec.

3) Payment Plans: Are being offered on all Skervesen Lefty builds over 6 months. You can select weekly, fortnightly or monthly payments whatever is easiest for you. Payment plans are interest free.
