Today's market for hand-built custom instruments is larger than ever. When a customer has an instrument tailored specifically to his or her playing style and needs, the musical experience moves to a new level of enjoyment and personal satisfaction.

Ron will discuss your instrument with you and incorporate your needs and style into the construction of your new Ron Belanger instrument:

Are you a flat picker or a finger picker?
Do you play softly or attack the instrument with vigour?
Do you have large or small hands?
Do you like a wide or narrow fret board?
What shape of neck would you like?

These and many more details are taken into account before the chisel hits the wood, so that you will have a guitar that fits you perfectly, and you will love playing.

Visit The Instrument section for a complete list of available options you can choose for you guitar.

You cannot find all of these options in a factory-built instrument.

Customer Praise:

“I have the honour of owning Ron’s first Hawaiian Steel. He has a knack for coming up with the perfect instrument for each player he builds for - beautiful looks, amazing playability, balanced tone and a unique voice. I stand by this advice: whoever you are, whatever you want in an instrument - order one NOW, while they are still incredibly affordable.” – Paul Court

"This beauty (Irish Bouzouki) arrived ... so am now seeing and hearing it.  It really is lovely in every way.  We had it on mic for a few minutes and it's going to track beautifully.  Rich, full, and delicate.  I'm very sure there are songs inside it, as well, waiting to come out.  I'll likely also use it on the record that started today.  I have it on full display in the studio so all can see. Thanks so much." – Billy Crockett, Blue Rock Artist Ranch and Studio
