Policies

Returns

After receiving your order, you have 30 days to decide if you are satisfied with your purchase. If you wish to return any item, you will have the option to receive a refund or exchange the item. If you choose a refund, we will issue your refund (minus shipping and handling) with the same method that you paid for it. To receive a full refund, the item must be returned in new condition within 30 days of your purchase. Custom-ordered jigs or CNC-made parts can only be refunded if they are found to be defective. 

Damaged Goods

Upon receiving your order, please inspect it to ensure that nothing has been damaged in shipping. If damage has occurred, please notify us immediately so that we can deal with it promptly.  

Warranty Information

Wood Products

Wood products are warrantied to be free of cracks or other damage when they arrive (unless sold with cracks/defects, i.e. African Blackwood). All wood products sold through Canadian Luthier Supply are stored in our humidity-controlled shop (45% RH). We carefully inspect every piece for cracks or damage before shipping. Provided you store the materials in a similar environment, they should remain stable. However, if the material is exposed to high humidity or dry conditions, they may crack or warp. We are not responsible for crack/defects that appear after the wood has been delivered. 

Jigs or Fixtures Made by Canadian Luthier Supply

Any jigs or fixtures made by CLS are warrantied to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for 3 months from purchase. With proper care, these jigs should last for years or indefinitely. This warranty only covers jigs or fixtures made by CLS and does not apply to any other products or tools we sell. This warranty does not apply to consumable parts of the products we manufacture (like sandpaper, router bits, etc).

All Other Products

All other products sold by CLS (cases, amps, tuners, pickups, tools and more) only carry a warranty if offered by the manufacturer.

International orders may be subject to brokerage, tax or other import charges. All shipping-related fees and taxes are the responsibility of the customer.

Contact us if you wish to get a quote for courier shipping service.
