I bought a Monark acoustic guitar from Guitar Fabrik in October 2025, which I received. On playing it, I found it difficult to keep in tune and got in contact with customer services, who replied and a... See more

Let's get the negative thing out of the way. Shipping and delivery was troublesome due to customers and duties and paperwork. Thanks, Brexit. But that aside, I'm really happy with my bass k... See more

Amazing dobro/electric combo
This is a well put together kit with good quality parts. The sound of this dobro/electric body mash up is fantastic. Mixing the humbucker and piezo pick up gives a great variety of tones, from straight electric to straight dobro and anything in between!

Online ordering and service made easy
Quick and easy ordering with prompt delivery. Also professional follow-up to an emailed question I had.

Very good guitar kit.
Very good guitar kit.
The delivery came within a couple of days and the construction went quickly and well. Most of the time is spent coloring the body and head. The electronics are prepared, which is great for me.
I have done about ten builds so far and this kit was of good quality.
Next time I will see what kind of models you have that are suitable for me to build.

Great kit
First of all, I was pleased with how quickly the kit arrived, as it was shipped from London. The kit itself is well made and so far everything is going smoothly. I have the neck completed and am now working on finishing the body. I am using a Wudtone finishing kit which will take at least two or three weeks to complete. I would definitely order another kit in the future.

Easy build overall
Easy build overall. Neck was a little warped out of the box but was able to straighten with a level and some clamps. Best quality items are the pickups...they sound fantastic! The bass plays as well as any main brand I've previously purchased. Overall a really nice kit!

Great kit, very fast shipping
Great kit, looking forward to putting it together. Very fast shipping, item arrived in flawless condition. Would not hesitate to buy again.

Neck arrived in good time
Neck arrived in good time. Overall it's good and fair value for the price.
The Maple is nice. Straight grained and material enough to shape as wanted.
The Ebony fingerboard slab is nice and thick, but wasn't properly sanded smooth prior to fret installation. Unevenness in 1 or 2 spots and sanding streaks on the frets (wood) from 3-6.
Frets are good and fairly even. Proper leveling and dressing is necessary which is to be expected for an unfinished neck.

I purchased a ES 335 guitar neck
I purchased a ES 335 guitar neck. It arrived in several days, looked beautiful, and the specs were spot on. Will definitely purchase from them again.

Excellent kit
Quick delivery to the US / great packaging - high quality materials. Neck is awesome, fretwork is good, neck pocket is great, solid components/electronics. Wonderful kit, would strongly recommend.

The neck came with a cheap plastic nut
The neck came with a cheap plastic nut. Seriously? This is almost false advertising as the pictures of the kit on your site show a bone nut, not plastic. The quality of grain matching was very poor, un-useable as a natural finish. There were obvious defects which were poorly covered up. I won't be advising anyone to purchase your kits.
Great
Great! I bought a firebird neck, Recived fast, the product is as i expected exept maybe the nut not really well adjust... But the overall quality is good!! Thanks

Very quick delivery
Very quick delivery, ship from GB on Monday and arrived in Canada on Tuesday. Product looks great. Haven't assembled yet but excited to do this project. Did have a $20.50 Duty charge which was quite reasonable.

Came in earlier than expected.
Came in earlier than expected.
Really looking forward to putting it together.
Very fast delivery
Very fast delivery. The set looks very good. Now I have a long process of grinding and oiling (5 to 6 times) of the body ahead of me. Also the neck requires a light grinding at the ends of the bars. The routing of the holes and the assembly of the electronics will have to wait. Overall I am very pleased.
Money well spent.
Neck/body fit was great, you can pick up body with the neck without screws. Fret work looks very nice also. Overall quality was better than I expected. The jack plate is the only piece that doesn’t fit well, but was an easy fix. Haven’t finished it yet, so I don’t know how it sounds.
Rick Bass Kit
The kit looks great! The neck and body and binding all very professionally done. Nice looking wood as well. Can't wait to put this rig together and shred some gnarly country bass or maybe some kraut rock.
Precise, no flaws,the product is better than I antipated
Everything was as expected and more. I surely will do business again with this supplier
Fast shipping
Fast shipping! Well packaged too. Only bad thing I could say is that there was a little hole where a potentiometer woukd have been on a right handed one but a little filler, sanding and stain did the job. Project almost done can't wait to play!
Stay domestic
I sent an email to the company as well.
Not my first, second,or third assembly.
There were several issues , including a customs delay because the proper paperwork wasn't sent to begin with
I had to reach out for a tracking number and to see if it had even shipped
The routing for electronics is too small
The hardware is cheap and strips even with a manual screwdriver
The bridge pre drill was too wide
The nut had to be glued back in
Eloane had great customer service, but ultimately, it's for a very poor product that shouldn't cost as much as it does.
