The Musik Haus is proud to be selected as a Fender Custom Shop dealer, offering some of the finest instruments in the world. As Fender puts it: “Custom Shop builders are part craftsman, part artist, part music fan—and often, part mad scientist… the creations that come from it are no ordinary instruments.” Whether you're chasing your dream guitar or recreating a vintage classic, the Custom Shop brings that vision to life. 

True story: I once stood in front of; and played two identical guitars—one an original late-’50s model, the other a brand-new Custom Shop build. I couldn’t tell them apart. The tone, the feel, the mojo—identical. The team just smiled: “That’s what we do.” These guitars aren’t just collectibles. They’re legacy instruments—meant to be played, passed down, and loved. 

We at Musik Haus are musicians, too. Let us help you find (or build) the guitar you've always dreamed of.  Who knows?  It might already be here, waiting for you, and here is one for your consideration.
