Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone has an order form for someone who wants to order a custom acoustic guitar. Something that I can print out and write in bindings, soundboard wood, back, inlay's etc. so the customer will have all info on what he wants to make up his guitar. I'm just looking to save time without having to sit down and go through making one up. Thanks in advance. |

Mark, that is a great question! I have a general spread sheet that I use, but nothing like what your talking about. I would really like that too. |

I have a spec sheet that lists all specs, components and materials. It has a section for all upgrades and the costs of those. It's just a word document that can be customized to your liking. The variables are endless. 2006-12-07_122820_SpecSheet.doc |

My opinion was that there were too many variables to make a form that covers all possible options so this is an example of how I did mine. Short explanation on the first line I state the series of this guitar. I build two series a Student model that is a simple no options guitar and Custom Deluxe series that is a custom feature guitar. each has a different starting base price. Student series Base Price (no custom option available on this series) Custom Deluxe series Base Price Body Shape: Back & Sides: Top: Binding: Purfling: Back Center Strip: Rosette: Body Finish: Neck Neck Type: Neck Finish: Fretboard: Fret Markers: Side Markers: Peghead Veneer: Tuners: Bridge, Nut and Saddle Bridge: Bridge Pins: Saddle & Nut: Strings: Case: Other notes: |

Nice one John. I had something similar but not as complete. The only thing I think yours might need is a Customer Signature and date line indicating that this is what the customer ordered ( although that detail sheet could be a part/page of your build contract). Thanks for sharing. |

Good point to make. I have a Commission agreement that I require be signed at the on set of the commission. That after the quoting process is over and the order is let is a simple contract between me and the client. If changes are made to the order after the order is let addendums(revisions or add-ons)are added this agrement are made and each addendum must be signed as well. |

I find that each one takes on a life of it's own and since it is kept as a soft copy only, I make changes as needed or additions. If my client sends me money during the build (which often happens kinda like a layaway plan) I note it in this file to keep track. The plans often take a change during construction and I don't mind. Of course once something is done, then it's done. |

Check out my order form at my web site on "How to order". It is a .pdf file that lists all of the options and their costs. At the end of the document is a place for the client to sign approving the build as specified. |

I can design something for you guys if you'd like, but I'd ask for some payment. Just thought I'd offer. |
