The Custom shop was a seperate room in the Bozeman plant.. Some of those Guitars had Brazilian Rosewood provided to them by the Customer for there guitar in inline ..They actually hand scalloped braces, sanded and polished those braces. cut there own pearls, Inlayed each piece by hand. it was a cool process to see,, this was in the early 90s..
I had a few guitars done in that Custom shop.. ..
as for the production shop.. that was still going on at the same time.
