The philosophy of Fender's Custom Shop is one - Recreating the legendary golden era Fender guitars using authentic parts and their years of know how.That being said, Fender welcomes new techniques and approaches, that can improve comfort and craftsmanship. These are used in the building process upon request.

Often the master designers surprise us with limited special editions or small editions, which are available for a short time and thus sought after by both musicians and collectors.

We are often in direct contact with Fender to design our unique pieces made. Each instrument starts with the wood, through the electronics and hardware down to the smallest screw and is provided with subtleties that offer the instrument an independent place in our delivery program.
The guitars are offered in different "aging stages":

1. NOS (New old Stock - an old guitar that never left the suitcase)

2. Closet Classic (an old instrument that was treated very carefully, or stowed in the closet and forgotten, with slight hairline cracks in the paint)

3. Relic (regularly played instrument with some finishchecking and wear on the fingerboard/neck)

4. Heavy Relic (heavy live use over decades, extreme wear and tear and a lot of impact damage)


The aging process not only achieves the look and feel of an old classic, but above all the sound is that of a long-recorded instrument.
