Woodrite Guitars Have Officially Arrived at Andertons UK: Models, Prices, & Specs Revealed!
Woodrite Guitars have officially landed at Andertons Music Co. in the UK! Discover the models, full specs, and UK pricing for these factory C Standard doom machines.
If you are a doom metal fan, stoner rock enthusiast, or just a player who loves low-tuned, massive-sounding riffs, your gear-hunting journey just got a whole lot easier. Woodrite Guitars—the doom-centric guitar brand founded by Steve Reis (the mastermind behind the massive YouTube channel Does It Doom and Woodbine Guitars)—has officially landed on UK soil.
Historically, getting your hands on one of these low-tuned beasts meant importing them from overseas, resulting in eye-watering shipping fees, import taxes, and weeks of customs delays. But starting right now, you can buy these factory-tuned riff monsters directly from Andertons Music Co., one of the world's most respected independent music retailers based in Guildford, England.
Take a look at that classic Silverburst finish and the double-cut body layout of the Woodrite Warlord. It's built to offer the classic, deep resonance of a heavy-set mahogany single-cut guitar, combined with the comfortable upper-fret access of a double-cut design.
The Woodrite Story: Custom Shop Inspiration Without the Custom Price Tag
Steve Reis established Woodrite in 2021. The story kicked off after Steve uploaded his first-ever YouTube video featuring a Woodbine Guitars Custom Shop model. The video went completely viral, generating a massive surge of orders.
Doom Machines!
However, because those guitars were fully handcrafted boutique builds, their high cost (often running several thousands of pounds) and long wait times made them unattainable for most everyday players.
To bridge this gap, Woodrite scaled up production by partnering with top-tier modern manufacturers in Indonesia.
The goal was simple: combine traditional guitar-building precision with modern manufacturing efficiency to deliver custom shop-style quality, premium tonewoods, and killer aesthetics at a much more attainable price point.
Heavy to the Core: What Makes Woodrite Guitars Unique?
Woodrite electric guitars aren't just your run-of-the-mill rock instruments; they are specifically engineered to handle high gain, low tunings, and heavy music styles.
- The Wood Setup: Both the Warlord and the Revelator feature solid Mahogany bodies and necks paired with glassy, premium Ebony fingerboards. This combination gives you a massive, thick low-end chunk with sustain that goes on for days.
- Factory C Standard Tuning: Forget setting up a brand-new guitar for heavy drop tunings yourself. These come straight out of the box equipped with heavy-gauge D'Addario EXL145 strings (12-54) and are perfectly set up in C Standard (C-F-A#-D#-G-C).
- Bulletproof Hardware: High-gain playing requires heavy-duty reliability. Woodrite outfits these guitars with rock-solid TonePros Tune-o-matic bridges and stopbar tailpieces. Couple that with a friction-reducing Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and premium Grover tuners, and your tuning won't budge even during the most aggressive down-tuned chugs.
- Brutish Pickups: Woodrite’s custom Barbarian Humbuckers are hot, punchy, and designed to thrive under loads of heavy fuzz and distortion. They keep the low end incredibly tight and clear without turning muddy.
