What is the difference between a high-end production guitar and a Custom Shop model?

High-end production guitars (such as PRS Core Custom 24 or Gibson USA Standard) utilize advanced CNC precision combined with hand-finishing in standard production runs. Custom Shop models feature lower batch volumes, hand-selected tonewoods, custom hand-wound pickups, period-accurate construction, and master luthier voicing.

Why should I avoid drop-shipped high-end electric guitars?

Drop-shipped guitars are dispatched directly from logistics warehouses without unboxing or inspection. Without a bench inspection and 5-point setup by an in-house guitar technician, you risk receiving an unplayable instrument affected by climate shifts during storage and transit.

What does MusicStreet's 5-point setup include?

Every instrument sold through MusicStreet undergoes a comprehensive 5-point bench inspection: truss rod and neck relief calibration, nut slot depth check, bridge radius and intonation alignment, pickup height and electronic circuit testing, and fretboard conditioning.

Can I try boutique and custom shop guitars in person at MusicStreet?

Yes. MusicStreet operates a showroom at 10 Chequers Court, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, where players can test premium PRS, Fender, and Gibson models through high-end amplifiers in a dedicated testing environment.

Nitro finish for vintage aesthetics

Wenge neck for smooth playability

The Wenge neck is designed with a custom 'C' shape, ensuring smooth playability and a comfortable feel. Its durable construction makes it perfect for players who want a neck that can handle fast, intricate playing, while also providing a long-lasting, solid structure.

SSS pickup configuration for tonal versatility

Equipped with an HSS pickup configuration, this guitar delivers a wide range of tones suitable for various genres. From crisp, clean highs to powerful, overdriven lows, the Nick Johnston Signature Set pickups offer exceptional tonal flexibility.

Schecter 2-point tremolo bridge for stability

The Schecter 2-Point Tremolo bridge ensures reliable tuning stability, making it perfect for expressive playing styles. Its design provides excellent sustain and enhances overall playability, allowing players to perform with confidence.
