Ordering

Orders should be sent to with our order form. We always review ordered specsheet and get back with estimated production time, confirmed total cost and payment details. All orders are binding from moment 40% deposit is paid. Estimated delivery always starts from moment we receive deposit.

Changes

We reserve the right to refuse any changes in order spec after the deposit is paid. Sometimes we might agree to change spec of order in production under these conditions:
1. Estimated delivery date is changed and starts from moment of last spec change confirmation.
2. Every spec change should be communicated to orders@blackat-guitars.com with subject "SPEC CHANGE".

Payment

All prices are in Euro. Default payment method is wire transfer to Euro bank account in Poland. For convenience of our customers we also provide option to pay in Polish Zloty, British Pound Sterling and US Dollars upon previous arrangement. Paypal payments are possible but should be made in Polish zloty. We use Google to calculate prices in other currencies than Euro.

Updates

We try to provide updates from production process on dedicated Facebook group when there are some major steps completed. Please notice that we usually have over 30 guitars in production simultaneously which means that 1. we can't focus on your guitar every day and there are sometimes weeks when there is no progress, 2. editing pictures of updates is time consuming and if there is too much work in given period we might not send out updates - focusing completely on manufacturing.

Delivery

All orders are shipped by UPS - Standard, Express Saver or Expedited, depending on location. We do not mark shipments as gift and always declare full value and insure for full value.

Production Time

General production time varies from 7 to 12 months depending on many factors like production queue, complexity of order or some unpredictable problems we might have at given time. If we fail to deliver guitar 90 days after estimated delivery term it is possible to cancel and receive full refund.

Cancellation

It is possible to cancel order but we reserve the right to keep part or even whole deposit (minimum 25% of deposit) to cover incurred costs. This does not apply to orders delayed 90 days after estimated delivery date.
