I hope this is the right place to ask this, if not feel free to move it. I live in the DFW area in north Texas, and I was curious to see what builders are local to me. I'm not in the market for a fully custom instrument in the near future, but it might be something down the road and I'd like to support a local builder if I can. I know about Pavel de la Fuente; I've visited his shop a couple of times and found him quite knowledgeable. I'd read that Skjold was in Lewisville but according to his Facebook he's moved to Ohio (this was disappointing to hear as I really liked his instrument designs). Is there anyone else out there that is worth checking out? Links to websites or pictures would be a plus. Thanks!
Sully is the only guy I know of. He's mostly a guitar guy, but he does do basses too. http://www.sullyguitars.com/
lots of partscaster types like Coleman, Glendale, and Brimstone. http://www.colemancustomguitars.com/ http://www.glendaleguitars.com/ https://www.facebook.com/rob.bridgesbrimstoneguitars?fref=ts
