Custom Builds

The Guitar Cellar builds custom guitars. For the same price of buying a mass produced medium quality guitar, we can build you a guitar built to your specs with high quality materials that you choose. Whether you are looking to get an acoustic, a classical, an archtop or an electric, we can build it for you.

If you aren’t already Robert Smith you will become extremely depressed because you don’t own this guitar.
