1250-1300 euros for a custom guitar? That's not very expensive...
Posted by: Pavel Nov 6 2007, 08:56 PM
That definitely is not expensive for a custom axe!
Can i ask you about the shapes? I mean, i love Ibanez headstock shape. Would it be possible to create something similar?
EDIT: misspeling
Posted by: Lester Nov 6 2007, 09:05 PM
I might ask you in a few years
need to save up for driving license first but i would like to have a custom made guitar one time.

Absolutely Pavel.
Mine is sort of PRS but bigger,guess that something like Ibanez wouldn't be the problem.
I said something like cause he will not copy it 100 %,hope you understand why.

Yeah,it isn't.
Large prices are usually caused by big companies and names.
This is still small custom shop.
Posted by: Pavel Nov 6 2007, 09:17 PM
Yeah i know copying is not allowed for copyright issues, and i even know type of a shape i would love to have. Your guitar is pretty "rounded" that's why i ask about more sharp-edged stuff.
Posted by: muris Nov 6 2007, 09:23 PM
Rounded-edgy,body-headstock,can be done.
Posted by: Fabian Schulz Nov 6 2007, 09:41 PM
A custom guitar would be very nice, but i love my ibanez neck and i think i can't get a wizard-like neck on that guitar, can I? And it's the same with the edge pro tremolo...
Posted by: muris Nov 6 2007, 09:43 PM
As I said,you CAN choose everything.
Same thing with type of the neck or bridge

true?
Great
if i had the money i would take one
so i think i have to do a lot lessons here and have to live real money-saving. Maybe in the future, I have a good guitar at the moment and i still need a good amp ...

Is there also a homepage ?
Posted by: muris Nov 7 2007, 12:42 AM
Unfortunately no
As I said it's only hobby to him and he prefers orders via recommendation.
Having website or page would bring too many people to it
and Mirza can't cover all that.

All right
Maybe thats even better, because not so many people know the shop and the prcie stays as low as it is (for a custom guitar)
And via recommendation its also more personal and makes it easier to communicate I think.

Hi Muris,
Great price for a custom guitar!
How long does it take to build from placing an order to receiving the guitar?
The only problem I could see is the shipping cost to the UK would be very expensive

Hi and good question,
Building depends of your demands mostly,finishing etc.
Guess 6-7 months top,must ask Mirza for more details.
And will check UK shipping rates for you as well.
Posted by: Smells Nov 7 2007, 07:44 PM
also just another couple of questions, sorry how would payment work? would he require deposit? whole amount upfront?, sorry, I am very interested
Posted by: Smells Nov 7 2007, 08:00 PM
that sounds great Muris!
If you can find out the shipping etc and the finer details from Mirza , please come back to me, I was looking to buy a guitar of real good quality during next year, this could be the answer, a nice custom job

Im kinda going a different way with this.. would he be willing to make a flying V? Because ive been working tediously on a design of a flying V that if i had the ability to make i would.. but i don't.. custom headstock design and all.. im sure making a v isn't much different from a regular guitar so im sure hed be able Maybe ill be in contact because ive wanted to have this guitar made for a long time and the only company who would do it was jackson but they wanted to charge a rediculous amount

Will ask about V,no worries.
Edit: I'm fast on the phone,no problem making V shape.

If you can check shipping rates to the UK, can you try for the US too? I imagine it'd be pretty ghastly though. I'd love a custom guitar eventually though.
What about semi hollow bodies?
Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Nov 7 2007, 09:03 PM
I think my next but 2 guitar will be custom - I need an LP then a hollow body, then I want a Cockburn Special
Might be a while before I can afford it but I would be interested eventually, so I would like to hear the US shipping price too
Posted by: mattacuk Nov 7 2007, 09:25 PM
Man, if i had the money i so would love to buy one !!
Posted by: muris Nov 8 2007, 12:26 AM
Wew,this is going big guys!
Shipping to states is around 100$ as well,must check it for sure tho.
Posted by: JVM Nov 8 2007, 04:08 AM
That's not that bad honestly. Tacked onto the price it's still a very nice price for a custom. Can you find out about the semi hollows though? It's not a necessary thing for me but it'd be pretty cool.
Posted by: Smikey2006 Nov 8 2007, 04:33 AM
Awsome thanks for the word on the V ill keep it in mind.

QUOTE (Fabian Schulz @ Nov 7 2007, 03:34 PM)
i think i would take a guitar like the Tagima K1 black with a very dark and hard to see green texture shimmering through and 27 frets and a edge pro II tremolo
This guitar would be a dream
Maybe a scalloped fretboard from fret 12 to 27
That would be amazing. Tagima's look so sick, ever since I first noticed Kiko and saw that Tagima he plays, i've always wanted to try one.
Posted by: Fabian Schulz Nov 24 2007, 11:23 AM
yeah it's a really nice guiar I hope I'll get one in this style one day

Hello everybody!
Just wanted to share this with you,maybe some of you will find it interesting.
You've probably seen my new custom from MK Guitars shop in Bosnia.
Order is possible and options are really fine.
You can choose everything,from type of woods,hardware,pick-ups,finish etc.
I mean everything,fully custom.
And I can supervise it for you so it's in safe hands tho.
Good thing here that it's HOBBY to Mirza who runs this shop
and this is not his main source of living,he's machine engineer btw.
Price for guitar with specs like mine would be around 1250-1300 euros (1810-1885 usd)
which is really great price for this kind of instrument imo!!
I know it is bit expensive for some of you but just wanted to let you know.
If you have any question tho don't hesitate to ask!
hello Muris.
I would like to buy a MK guitar like yours. How do I get in touch with that shop in Bosnia?Can you supervise it ?
Posted by: Muris Dec 24 2007, 04:50 PM
Hi there
You'll have to make an order with all specs that you want for your guitar,
than Mirza(man who runs the shop) will calculate everything and tell you the price,
I'll PM you his email right now.
Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Jan 27 2008, 08:54 PM
Muris,
Please may I have his email address also? I'm looking to buy a custom guitar in the next few months. But mine will be an expensive one as I want it made from Sitka Spruce.
Posted by: Muris Jan 27 2008, 08:55 PM
Sure,gonna send it to you via PM.
Posted by: micpon Jan 28 2008, 01:34 AM
Muris,
thanks for keeping me informed about the progress of my MK guitar. I´m surprised that Mirza already has started building it. I have noticed that you don´t use the cover on the bridge pickup(Rogue) anymore. What´s the difference?
Posted by: Muris Jan 28 2008, 01:37 AM
That was Viper with the cover,
you're welcome tho.

Hello again Muris,
I wonder if you have a Rouge or a Viper bridgepickup? What´s the difference between them(tone) and which one do you prefer? pickup-covers-just cosmetics or do they have some kind of function?
Posted by: Muris Jan 28 2008, 07:47 PM
First I wanted covered pickup since I sweat a lot
It was Viper with cover.
Then I realized I need more power in pickup and so I took Rogue.
Without cover this time cause rest of my set(singles) is also without cover,looks more compact.
But these covers don't do anything to your sound,
it's just coverage,cosmetic or hygienic,you name it.
Posted by: g-forcelover Mar 15 2008, 01:35 AM
i wonder, could he make a double guitar like the one michael angelo batio uses, out of 2 bc rich mockingbird specials?
Posted by: Muris Mar 15 2008, 02:20 AM
He could I guess but he won't I'm afraid,
he don't likes that kind of axes.
Posted by: Zephyr Mar 23 2008, 02:04 AM
Could you send me his email, Muris? It's going to be quite a while before I can afford a new guitar, but I definitely want to keep this in mind!
Posted by: Tjchep Mar 23 2008, 02:09 AM
Yeah muris.
I'm really starting to gain interest in this custom guitar thing. Cause originality is my favorite thing in this world .
Do you think you could throw me his E-mail in a pm? It would be much appreciated.
Posted by: Muris Mar 23 2008, 02:55 AM
No problem at all,here it comes.
Just be patient for response,few days ago he had a tragedy in family,
might take some time to respond.

Yep,Mirza is just waiting for pups,small problems with the order
but they shall arrive in Bosnia soon.
I spoke with him few days ago,he said your guitar looks brilliant,
and you know what...I believe him.
I'll try to get some photos from him,no worries.

Is he still active because I am very interested. I'm not quite done with exactly how I want it but if I could get in touch with him to discuss shapes etc. I'd be very delighted.
Posted by: wollace03 Aug 3 2008, 01:38 PM
hi muris!
do you have a pic of your mk guitar?
i really started thinking when i heard your replies concerning buying a prs tremonti for about 2800 eur, and really think about buying a custom guitar - so i am very interested in mk guitars.
so maybe you can give me the email adress of your friend and i can get in touch with him.
the shipping cost from bosnia to austria shouldn´t be too high..
thanx!
p.s. alternate workout is the best lesson!!!!!

Posted by: Muris Varajic Aug 3 2008, 11:06 PM
Sure,I was with Mirza just few hours ago and we
were actually discussing about orders etc.
He had to reject couple of them during summer
cause he was really busy with everything.
But now things are getting back to normal
and he's willing to accept new orders.
Gonna give you his email via PM tho.
Posted by: kyldeee Aug 4 2008, 06:51 PM
Ok, I'm really starting to get into this...
But I do have some question on how this works
1) How is the payment done
2) as far as the shipping goes, is it toll free, cause I don't remember if Bosnia is a EU country,
or does it even matter... and what is the shipping rate to Finland
Cheers

Hi Kyldeee
I don't know much about payment method
but I think it's done by bank account transfer,
rates are available as well if I'm right.
I'm sure Michael (Micpon) and Chris (Smells)
can give you more details about payments
cause I have nothing to do with it,
it's all discussed between Mirza and customer.
Shipping to UK was about 100$ so I guess
it'd be around the same price for Finland as well.

Just to confirm on Muris`s post, I did mine by bank transfer, didnt have any problems etc, initial deposit to get the guitar underway also. totally worth doing

I transfered the money thru my internetbank. No problems. You have to know Mirzas IBAN-number, BIC/SWIFT-adress and his homeadress. The transfer will take 2-3 days.
I dont think there will be any custom-problems, Bosnia and Finland are both EU-countrys(but Ihavent recieved my guitar yet...)

Hey Muris. Though I'm not looking for a guitar right now, I'm a hard guy to satisfy when it comes to my guitars and even though I love all of mine, I would prefer to have just one guitar that covers all my bases. Do you think this might still be an option in a year or two?
Posted by: Muris Varajic Aug 8 2008, 01:40 AM
Of course JVM.
At the moment this is not Mirza's prime job
but in a few years it might be,no worries.

Hi Muris, can you give me a bit more detailed on what spec do I have to ask? I usually just pay attention to the type of wood and pickups so can you give me a list of things so I can check out?
If the price fits me good I might considering getting one, since it was my idea to get a les paul, this might be a better way to get it, also it will be unique for me ^^
Btw, can you find out how much would be the shipping to Portugal?
Thanks in advance
Filipe

Well,some other specs you might look up too are neck radius,type of frets,inlays,
color,type of lacquer,pots configuration etc.
As for shipping,I think it's about 100$ to most countries in Europe.

Muris I sent exact specs of the guitar I wanted in an email but I never got a reply Any chance of asking if he received an email off of me at all about a guitar? I sent it months ago now. I really want one

Still no reply? Ohhh that's odd...
Can you tell me what did you ask,and name you used in email?
Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Sep 9 2008, 01:25 PM
I sent really exact specs of what I wanted and it would have said Paul Butcher sent the email. I remember I said I'd like the body made of Sitka Spruce which I doubt many ask for.
Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 9 2008, 01:26 PM
Ahh,I believe he mentioned something about request for Sitka Spruce,
will talk with him asap.
Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Sep 9 2008, 01:29 PM
I have exact email still somewhere if that would help?
I'm still really interested in having one. I asked for really specific stuff but I could be more relaxed. I didn't know how much detail he required.
Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 9 2008, 02:04 PM
No need too,I know the details about your request now and I will talk with him.
Btw,Sitka Spruce is wood used for acoustic guitars mostly,body to be precise.
Neck from it would be easy to twist imo

This guitar is made from Sitka Spruce but not the neck.

Would neck be impossible?
If he can't do Sitka Spruce then how about Koa? Please mention Koa if Sitka Spruce is out of the question.
Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 9 2008, 02:56 PM
I believe Sitka Spruce isn't best deal for the neck cause it's too soft.
Koa might be fine but I'm not sure if he has it in his wood library atm,will see.

Muris is there any way you can give me his contact so I can send him specs and check out how much it would cost or do you prefer me to send you a PM with the specs so you can send him?

Sending you Mirza's emails right now.

Thanks Muris
Posted by: audiopaal Sep 10 2008, 08:14 AM
Could you send me his email as well?
I can't afford one right now, but I'd like to get a price for consideration

Of course,it's on its way.
Posted by: Rated Htr Sep 11 2008, 03:28 PM
Muris, I don't know if I could send an email or not, the page from hotmail kept going down, can you send him my email just to make sure he gets it?
If so, I'll send it by pm
Thanks in advance
Filipe
Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 11 2008, 06:17 PM
All I can do is to let him know that you sent it to him,
I really don't want to be involved a lot between Mirza and eventual customer,
there are many reasons for that.
Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Sep 11 2008, 06:27 PM
I'm really looking to buy one depending on price so please find out answer to my q when you get chance. I really want a Koa or Sitka Spruce guitar

Please ask him than if he received an email from one Filipe Rocha, so I can know if it really got sent
Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 11 2008, 08:54 PM
Will do.
Just know one thing,he's extremely busy man,
making guitars is just hobby for him and he probably receives lots of emails everyday
about guitars and about his regular job so he might miss one or few emails.
But will ask him,no worries.
Posted by: Rated Htr Sep 11 2008, 10:38 PM
Yeah, I also have no rushes, and I also imagined he was a busy man, I was just concern about the error

Hi!
I was planning to buy a new guitar and I thought to ask in this forum your opinion when I saw this post just yesterday!
It´s not expensive at all for a custom guitar!
I´ve been playing a Strat for years and i miss some more power? (call it how you want)sound and i was up to buy a new guitar.
I was up to buy an Studio LP but this changes everything!
If Mirza still works this,
Can you please give me his email address so I can get more accurate quotation?
Thanks SO much in advance.
Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 20 2008, 12:25 AM
Email is on the way.
Posted by: Oxac Oct 9 2008, 01:01 PM

I really don't know
I told him about email tho,
and the reason why I'm only forwarding his email
and not doing anything else between him and customer
is simple,don't want to be a secretary.
I hope he'll get back to you soon.

Youd' be the coollest secretary ever!

Posted by: Oxac Oct 15 2008, 07:23 AM
I hope you know that it wasn't my intention to make you my or his secretary Muris. I'm just very excited and I don' like to wait unless I know for how long I will be waiting.
Thanks a lot for your time though.

No worries ,I wasn't talking about you at all,just in general.

Hello Muris,
so lets say i want to buy a custom guitar.
Besides i have no real knowledge of what is good or what sounds good.
Is there a way where i can inform myself a bit? or what would you recommend?
What are your guitar specifications?
greetz Pedro
Posted by: Muris Varajic Nov 5 2008, 04:59 PM
Hi Pedro.
Most of the specs on my custom you can read http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/wiki/index.php/Mk_Guitars_Mv_Custom_Model_review.
But if you wanna order custom guitar then you should really know
100% what are you looking for,what kind of wood,finish,
type of neck,radius,size of frets,electronics etc.
There are many sites explaining those things,
do some googling,you can't miss.
Posted by: Muris Varajic Feb 5 2009, 02:00 AM
Yeah, it's just his hobby so far and prices are really low
considering the fact that it's fully hand made,100%.
Maybe one day he'll start working on guitars only
and maybe the price might go a bit higher when he does.
Anyhow, it won't happen in next year or two I guess.
Posted by: maharzan May 14 2009, 07:04 PM
I wish somebody could bring it for me. Shipping is not guaranteed. Perhaps should ask Fedex.
I would like to get on customized guitar one day and looking at your custom guitar, I definitely like to order same but with hambuckers on both neck and bridge. no single coils. And maybe get my own logo.
Your guitar is just great!!

Posted by: maharzan May 15 2009, 05:12 PM
Well, Let me first 'grab' all your skills or at least 50% and then I will definitely get one. Will call you then. I would love to see some really close up pictures if you or the maker has them somewhere. I want to see the details and admire. Thats what I can do right now.
Posted by: NoSkill May 22 2009, 03:08 PM
I would love a beautiful guitar like this. Muris, I wouldn't even know what options to order though. Can this be shipped safely to Canada? What an amazing thing it would be, to have a guitar like this. Would you, still, supervise the build. This is really something to consider for sure.

Shipping isn't the problem, it's about how much it costs tho
since that pretty much determines safety of shipping!
I like to supervise every order that comes with my recommendation
but it's like that I'd be with Mirza all the time,
I let him to finish everything and I test it.
There is no need to watch every step he makes if he
has all specs written nicely.
