Fantastic service from Coban Guitars
Fantastic service from Coban Guitars. My guitar kit arrived in record time from purchase. Communications with Coban were also exceptional every step of the way!
I've not started building the kit yet but it looks to be great quality, carefully wrapped parts and clear detailed instructions.

I wasn’t happy with the guitar kit I got sent originally but my email was answered very quickly and a replacement was sent out and the return was collected free. The replacement body and neck great and needed very little work other than sanding and dressing a couple of frets which you would expect. Also got a hanfull of complimentary pick. Can’t fault the service.

Great experience
Had a really good time building this a despite a few missteps along the way, very pleased with the result. General advice would be to take your time to get the guitar you always promised yourself. 😎
