Buddy boy FAQ

Questions before you inquire.

Answers to questions we get most. 

Do you take custom commissions?

Yes. We accept custom commissions. Share your design ideas, preferred size and colors.  Once you approve the final design we will confirm cost and the delivery timeline.

What pieces are currently available?

Availability changes as pieces are completed. Send an inquiry for the live list of ready-to-ship pieces and upcoming builds.  We continuously create and build new and exciting concepts.  

What is the typical lead time?

Most commissions take 4–8 weeks, depending on complexity, sourcing, and studio queue at the time of booking.

Do you offer shipping or pickup options?

Both are possible. We can arrange secure shipping or coordinate local pickup, depending on piece size and destination.  In-stock pieces typically ship within 2-3 business days; commissioned builds ship after completion and vary depending on active builds and complexity of the commission.  All shipments are professionally packed, tracked, and insured for full declared value.

Are pieces one-of-a-kind?

Every finished work is unique even when a form is revisited.  Drum history, materials and hand finishing make each work distinct.  If you have seen piece you are interested in, include the name, screenshot, or section reference in your message. We will confirm availability and share next steps.
