OUR MISSION

At Weapons Grade Guitars, we pour our hearts into crafting exceptional instruments that ignite creativity and elevate musicianship. Every guitar we make is a labor of love—designed to inspire, built to perform, and created to endure.

Since our founding in 2022, we’ve been on a mission to redefine what a guitar can be: a perfect harmony of breathtaking aesthetics, effortless playability, and uncompromising quality. Proudly handcrafted in the UK, each instrument is a testament to our dedication, precision, and pride in British craftsmanship.

We believe the right guitar isn’t just a tool—it’s an extension of the artist, a gateway to boundless creativity, and a partner in every performance. Our passionate team work tirelessly to ensure that every guitar we build exceeds expectations and leaves a lasting impression.

Our Founder

Jacob King has always had a passion for making things. From an early age, he loved music and was intrigued by the guitar. Several years ago, he discovered that by combining his tech background with his newfound love of lutherie, he could create something truly special and unique for musicians.

Having been frustrated in his youth at the scarcity and in-affordability of handmade bespoke guitars, Jacob has made it his mission to develop handmade instruments available everyone, from the seasoned musician to the budding novice.

Every guitar that we build is a testament to our dedication to the craft and our passion for bringing innovative ideas to life.

OUR LEGACY

We create heirloom-quality guitars designed to endure a lifetime and be cherished for generations to come.

To us, crafting a guitar is more than assembling materials—it’s about creating an instrument that resonates with its owner, both in sound and spirit.

Each guitar is a reflection of our commitment to timeless craftsmanship and exceptional quality.

We take pride in supporting our customers at every stage, from the moment of purchase to ongoing maintenance.

We understand the deep connection between a guitarist and their instrument, and we’re here to ensure it remains a source of inspiration for years to come.
