G'Day and welcome to my web site
At Noyce Guitars, we build most types of guitar and repair
guitars and other musical instruments.
"I have spent over 35 years designing and developing
a range of electric and acoustic guitars, basses, mandolins
and other hand crafted products. This web site contains
information about the products and services available through
Noyce Guitars as well as useful technical information I've
compiled and published over the years." |
"I hope you find my website of interest."

Introducing... "The Deco"
It's not very often that we add a new model to our electric solid-body range. |
 |
In 2007 a good mate of mine, Don Newman, approached me with the idea of recreating the retro style of the classic Italian "Eko" solid body that was popular during the '60s.
This instrument was built as a custom order with Don enthusiatically contributing to the guitar's overall design, finish, and choice of hardware as well as some hands-on work building the guitar. |

On these pages we show exactly how we've approached instrument repairs
with lots of colour glossies outlining the steps
taken to complete the repairs. |

Noycelands
I live on a 5 Ha (13 Acre) bush property on the outskirts
of Ballarat, Victoria about 100 Km from Melbourne. Many
years ago a friend with a sense of humor dubbed it "Noycelands"
and it kind-of stuck. This area contains a collection
of stories about Ian
Noyce and the evolution of Noyce Guitars.
Check out the Gallery containing pictures of the many people - muso's and
others - that we've come to know over the years. |
