Ordering your Martin Custom Shop guitar is easy! We routinely stock many great Custom Shop guitars right here on our site. These guitars are available for purchase now. However, if you have an idea for your own custom build, just contact our sales team to get started.

After submission, you can expect to receive a quote within a few days to a few weeks, depending on the complexity of the build. Quotes are free with no obligation to purchase.

How Much is a Martin Custom Shop Guitar?
Pricing for Martin Custom Shop guitars can vary widely depending on the complexity of customizations. Prices can range from $2,000 to over $50,000. The best way to get an accurate cost for your Martin Custom Guitar is to request a quote through Instrumental Music Thousand Oaks.
In general, every spec change will have an impact on pricing. The higher you go with the style number (18, 28, 45, etc.) for your base model, the higher the price. Adding pearl inlay will increase the price. And the type of wood can also impact the overall cost of a custom. For example: a custom guitar with rosewood will naturally be more expensive than one with standard mahogany. But you don't have to worry about all of that. Instrumental Music Thousand Oaks can help you navigate the selection process to build you the guitar you want at the price that works for you.
How Long Does it Take to Build a Martin Custom Guitar?
