VIBROCASTER CO.
As a side business to subsidise the music career and lack of gigs during the pandemic, Alex opened a small second hand, online guitar shop. Selling Fender & Gibson guitars, amps, parts and pedals, if you're purchasing some thing from him, you can take comfort in the knowledge that you are buying form a professional musician with a long standing reputation.
Vibrocaster Co. is only a small operation at the moment. Once corona-virus becomes less of an obstacle, it will be expanding into a full time VAT-registered business. Please head over to 'The Guitar Shop' page or click the image to the left to find out more.
