My Story & Philosophy
Time Wizard Custom Guitars started as a teenage obsession, taking guitars apart, figuring out what made them great (or not), and eventually building my own. Over the years, that obsession turned into a serious craft.
I build instruments that capture that magic of vintage guitars but with the comfort and precision of modern instruments. Based in Amsterdam, I craft custom guitars and hand-wound pickups for players who demand exceptional sound, feel, and reliability. I take inspiration from the golden era of Fender; balanced, resonant, and effortlessly playable.
Great tone starts with great pickups. My scatterwound pickups are built to vintage-correct specs, capturing the soul of the classics while enhancing their natural expressiveness. Whether you're chasing the shimmer of early Stratocasters or the growl of vintage P-90s, I can dial in the right sound for you.
Right now I'm researching alternative materials for guitar building, specifically bio-based composites. Follow my blog for updates.
