Wow what a summer it’s been so far! I just wanted to let you know what we’re doing about the shipping cost. We use USPS and our own boxes to ship our products out.
Occasionally the site is drastically over-estimating the shipping cost -we definitely don’t think that’s okay.. we’re not trying to profit off of shipping! So what I’ve been doing is refunding the difference in actual shipping cost (minus 10% of the total for supplies and packing time) for orders where the shipping is overestimated. So if you are billed $70 for shipping and the actual cost is $50, you will get a refund of $15.
If you’re interested in trying to estimate the cost, we use USPS and our boxes are likely going to be one of three sizes (24x16x6, 24x10x4, or 24x8x6) depending on what you’re ordering. The weights are posted for each product and shipping materials and distance factor into the total cost so please just keep that in mind while you’re estimating!
We just want to get this beautiful wood out of our shop and into the world!

Holy cow has it been a busy month for the Arizona Guitar Wood folks! We’ve filled orders (thank you!), we’re preparing other pieces for posting, Ed has been traveling, and Kristen has been moving into a new place!
Now that things are settling down a bit here we’ll be back to posting some of our newest stuff on Instagram in the coming week!

Hey everyone, just a heads up that we are having some issues with the store. Basically SquareSpace is being a bit of pain but we’re working to get it resolved as soon as possible!
The way this will manifest is that if you try to order something, you’ll get to a point where you get an angry red box telling you to “Please enter more information” or missing information or something; however, there is nothing actually missing.
Please bear with us as we get this sorted out!

Shop page updates are imminent/in progress!
We now have enough pieces online that we want to add category buttons for a better browsing experience if you already have an idea of what you’re interested in. Over the next week or so, pieces will start getting added to the categories that are on the main shop page!
For now the products that show up on the main page will remain there, but eventually they will be moved into their respective categories so that page is a little less visually overwhelming

Hey folks, as it turns out if you’ve placed an order with us up until Dec 7th it did NOT go through. The shop part of the site was in Test Mode so any purchases did not go through. If you’re wondering you’ve been affected by this, check the last 4 digits of the credit card on your invoice -it’ll be 4242, which is the SquareSpace dummy card. K has contacted those affected but if you haven’t heard anything and are wondering where your products are please reach out to info@arizonaguitarwood.com!
The store has been fixed so you can now actually make purchases. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions and happy making!
K is very very sorry for the inconvenience!

Now that the website is live and products actually have visible dimensions feel free to browse and buy! If you run into any issues please contact us using the “Contact” form or emailing us directly at info@arizonaguitarwood.com
If you encounter issues with the shipping cost (i.e. it seems kind of absurd) please let us know! It’s K’s first time creating a web store and setting up the shipping profiles has not gone as smoothly as it probably should’ve gone, but she’s working on it!
