It's a fusion of art and science. Every Stradsaw is a unique, custom creation - no two are the same. Five years of trial-and-error development have resulted in the evolution of the musical saw into a serious, professional instrument!
All of my Stradsaw musical saws, Stradbows and saw cheats are custom-made on demand - I do not have pre-made items for sale.
If you are interested in ordering a Stradsaw, Stradbow or a saw cheat, you will need to contact me and get signed onto my waiting list. While you are waiting your turn, we can discuss what you'd like to order, and I'll help you with your choices so that you end up with exactly what you want.
No payment is needed until I actually begin your job. When I reach your name on the waiting list, I contact you and the job begins.
I do world-class custom work...it takes a lot of time to complete each item. Wait times vary, depending on the size of each order and the length of the waiting list. Larger orders (like the Limited-Edition Deluxe Stradsaw Package) can take three months to complete. But even small orders can be delayed, as I work my way down the waiting list. Contact me if you have any questions.
I appreciate the patience of all of my customers. You are willing to wait for the best work that your money can buy! I look forward to meeting all of your musical saw needs in the coming year....

Not for everyone...just for very serious clients who want the best in the world...at a price that's still amazingly affordable - compared to a nice guitar or other instrument!

NOTE: Please click on picture above to go to the Reversed-Lever saw cheat page!
I can now reverse the position of the bending lever on any of my clamp-mount saw cheats. By fixing the lever at the front of the clamping jaws, your bending arm gets two full inches of extra reach, and the lever is centered right over the tip of your blade, for superb control. Let me know if you want this design option when you order any saw cheat!

Custom built hardwood case - made to fit your musical saw or any Stradsaw. Wide choice of nice hardwoods included in the base price - or pay extra for any special-order wood.
Not cheap! The labor is very intense and the materials cost a lot...I deliberately price these special collector cases high enough to discourage too many sales! Please allow a full month minimum build time...

I am now upgrading and optimizing regular musical saws! I am able to greatly improve both the appearance and the playing qualities of any existing handsaws - transforming them into wonderful performance instruments and works of art. As I complete each "Optimization," I will add it to the "Optimized Handsaws" page of this website, and it will appear in the "Featured Products" section of this landing page.
I love my customers, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
