Now available for the first time, we present the Gretsch Masterbuilt Custom Shop Collection from the imaginations of Master Builders Chad Henrichsen and Gonzalo Madrigal. This collection of guitars brings you the classic Gretsch vibe with the handcrafted attention to detail you can only get from a Custom Shop instrument. Quantities are limited to just one of each model, so call your Sales Engineer today to secure one of these rare guitars for your collection.
Just arrived — this collaboration with Gibson Custom features Sweetwater-exclusive Dealer Select models with unique finishes, hand-selected 7A quilt tops, and Sugarbucker pickups. Designed in conjunction with Gibson, these slightly underwound Alnico IV pickups pay homage to the early iterations of lower-output PAFs combined with wax-potted reliability.
Sweetwater and Taylor have partnered on a collection of custom builds that feature hand-selected wood sets that will be released over the next few years. This first batch features ivoroid and faux tortoiseshell appointments across three different back/sides materials (figured rosewood, cocobolo, and Bocote), along with traditional X-bracing.
These limited-run guitars are handbuilt in Suhr’s California shop with features not found on regular production models, giving them a familiar, classic vibe with a modern twist for today’s guitarist.
Our guitar experts worked with the team at the Martin Custom Shop and spec’d out this exclusive D-18 outfitted with hand-selected rare sinker redwood top and sinker mahogany back and sides. Other touches include forward-shifted Golden Era X-bracing, a GE Modified Low Oval neck profile, an ebony fingerboard and bridge, and Grover nickel, vintage-style tuners.
