Schael are a local company who can produce an utterly unique instrument, built from musically correct components, adjusted to your own hands and playing style, and individually hand painted to create an individual statement that will never be repeated...

Examples of Schael's expertise can be viewed and purchased from Tadley Instruments.

Schael begin with a kit from a leading maker - for how can you improve on half a century of evolution and refinement? The solid body electric guitar is an acknowledged masterpiece - proven over 50 years that have defined the entire spectrum of modern guitar music. It’s sheer popularity means you begin with good quality components and classic design at an excellent price..

On that rock-solid foundation the creativity begins........

Dave from Schael will discuss your playing style and needs with you, suggesting refinements and alternatives, showing you the difference they make and how much they affect the final price.

Jeannette will then discuss what ideas you may have for your graphic design, and will also help you with ideas. She will then sketch out some designs incorporating your suggestions. If you like them she tests the designs on wood to see how they work, before getting your final agreement and creating a unique GuitArt body for YOUR guitar.

It looks different, it feels different as you run your hands over the lightly textured surface. It even sounds different. Louder and sweeter, as the natural wood grain is freed from the heavy lacquer armouring of most guitar bodies.

This is your opportunity to design your own one off custom made instrument. A Guitar to get you noticed - A Guitar for YOU!
