How do I know if a bridge is compatible with my guitar ?
All dimensions and technical specifications are provided on our product pages. If in doubt, you can send us information about your instrument or its technical drawing so that we can check compatibility.
Can I replace my current hardware with FAUVE hardware without modifying my guitar ?
Our hardware is designed based on standard dimensions commonly used in the guitar industry, making it easier to replace existing hardware without modifying the instrument.
To help you accurately check compatibility with your guitar, dimensioned drawings of our parts are available on each product page.
However, compatibility may vary depending on the brand and model. If in doubt, please contact us. We can help you check that the FAUVE part you have selected is suitable for your instrument.
Can you manufacture a completely custom part ?
We can consider specific projects depending on their technical feasibility. Contact us with your requirements, dimensions or technical drawing.
Can I order a finish that isn’t listed on your website but that I’ve seen on your social media ?
Certain combinations or special finishes can be considered upon request. Please contact us before ordering.
Which material should I choose ?
No material is inherently superior to another.
Each alloy has its own characteristics in terms of weight, rigidity, strength, feel, and aesthetics.
The choice depends above all on the project, the function of the part, the expectations of the musician or luthier… and sometimes simply on the pleasure of owning a beautiful object.
Will your finishes change over time ?
Yes, some finishes may naturally evolve over time and with use.
Contact with your hands, friction, perspiration or simply the natural ageing of the material can gradually alter their appearance. This evolution is particularly noticeable on certain raw or aged finishes and contributes to the unique character of each piece.
I would like to equip my entire guitar with FAUVE hardware. Can you help me ?
Yes. We can help you select a coherent set of FAUVE hardware for your instrument: bridge, tuning machines, knobs and accessories, depending on the products available and your guitar's configuration.
Send us the specifications of your instrument, a few photos and your preferred finish. We will help you identify the appropriate parts and put together your FAUVE configuration.
Is there a minimum order quantity for professionals ?
No. FAUVE has no minimum order quantity.
Whether you need a single part for a specific project or a complete set of hardware, you only order what you need.
