Our Story
Freestyle Custom Guitars is more than a name on a headstock — it’s the life’s work of luthier Eric Gale. In a small family workshop, every instrument begins as raw wood and becomes a one-of-a-kind guitar, shaped entirely by hand. No two builds are alike, and no detail is left to chance.
Eric’s approach is patient and exacting, but also deeply personal. Each curve, fret, and finish carries the touch of a craftsman who believes that an instrument should feel like it was always meant for you. That dedication is why world-class musicians trust his work, and why collectors treasure it.
To complete the voice of each guitar, Eric partners with Tom Brantley — a master of electric guitar pickups. Tom’s custom designs bring out the full character of Eric’s builds, creating instruments that don’t just play, but sing.
Freestyle Custom Guitars is, at heart, a family business. It’s about craft passed through hands, not factories. Whether you’re stepping on stage, recording in a studio, or simply chasing the perfect sound at home, these guitars are built to become part of your story.
