"Visually and sonically, the Dakota is the most graceful reimagining of Ray Dietrich’s original concept we’ve played so far"
Ivison Guitars is a small, boutique electric guitar company based in Worcestershire, UK.
​
Helmed by Neil Ivison, a guitarist and guitar tech of over 20 years, who retired from international touring in 2018 and set up a busy repair and luthiery shop.
​
Steadily gaining a worldwide reputation, we have built guitars for discerning players across the UK, Europe, Austria, Nashville, Texas, South America and Australia.
All Ivison guitars are built, one at a time, from raw lumber billets to the final hand buffed 'vintage patina' finish using the finest quality materials available and using both traditional & modern construction methods and techniques.
We use Honduran & African Mahogany, Korina, Eastern Maple, Indian Rosewood, Celluloid Inlays, Celluloid Binding and Pickguards, Aniline Dyes, Non-Plasticised Nitrocellulose Lacquer and the finest pickups available, hand wound specifically for us here in the UK
​
Every guitar is meticulously built and set up in our workshop, deep in the Worcestershire countryside.
