Terms & Conditions
Our Goal
*Our main goal is to be sure you receive the highest quality product possible. The intent is to ship product within 10-12 business days from order date. Due to the current post-covid environment, we are not wasting material. Our material increased in price close to 100% during Covid and never went down. As a result, we are carefully setting up every job to ensure we do not waste material to keep your cost down. Our price went up almost 100% but your cost only went up 1-2%. As a result of this new environment, shipping times are approximate and subject to change without notice since templates are manufactured in house to order. You may not be contacted if your order falls outside the 10-12 business day turnaround. Feel free to contact us anytime about your order, however, keep in mind that the date we provide in our email responses are still approximate. Contact us directly at ronnytrigo70@hotmail.com, not through Paypal. Please note that all prices on this site are quoted in USD.
Shipping
*Templates ship UPS, we may use USPS in some instances. Our choice unless you specify in advance. We offer UPS as a cheaper option for most depending on where you live. Choosing Priority Mail does not imply that your order will ship faster, it is still subject to the timeframe listed above. We are not responsible for lost, stolen, abandoned, damaged, un-deliverable, or delayed packages, US or International shipping. If you want protection from this reality, very rare but it does happen, please request insurance in advance so we can invoice accordingly for associated costs. If a package is un-deliverable, a $15 fee will apply to resend package, $65 for International Packages. There are no refunds for un-deliverable packages or ANY shipping occurrences outside our control. For customers outside the US, we ship USPS Priority Mail International or UPS. You are responsible for any taxes/import duties that may result in your Country prior to delivery. We are also not responsible for delayed packages caused by natural disaster, war, pandemic, or any other unforeseen event that may cause your package to be delayed.

Legal, Safety, other
*These templates are for personal use and should not be used for commercial purposes.
*You are ultimately responsible for the quality and playability of the instrument you build. Do not use these templates unless you have researched for neck/bridge placement, scale, etc.. Basic woodworking skills are recommended. There are many great videos on Youtube with building information that can be applied to most electric guitar builds. Please check for placement before cutting an expensive slab of wood! You are responsible for your mistakes.
*Please exercise caution when handling power tools to ensure for your safety. Remember, you need your fingers to play and build guitars!
* We cannot guarantee exact replicas. Laser cutting tolerances, commercial instrument variations, CAD conversions, and other factors beyond our control make it impossible to make 100% accurate templates. Templates can be tailored to your taste by sanding the edges or moving the template around during the building process. Neck pockets may need final sanding to be compatible with commercially available necks.
*Guitar Building Templates is not affiliated with any artist or guitar company referred to on this website and/or auction site used for the sale of these templates.
*Template specifications are subject to change without notice. In an ongoing effort to improve products, files are constantly being revised so templates may differ than those on pictures. Due to local wood supply, material thickness may vary plus or minus one sixteenth of an inch.
*Bass neck/profile templates, as well as select guitars, are cut in half to ease shipping costs.
*There are no returns/refunds allowed. If a template is found to be defective, we will replace/repair at our discretion. Photos must be sent for evaluation if you feel you encounter a defect.
*Since a laser is used to cut templates, it will have burn marks on the edges. Fine sanding may be required to smooth the edges to your liking. However, we have found that the burned edges translate to smooth cutting with the template bit and flush bearing.
*By making a purchase with Guitar Building Templates Inc., you agree to the terms set forth above.
