The Building Blocks Sale
Choose one of these necks or bodies to get a big discount on your custom order!
When you build guitars, sometimes you make a couple extra bits and pieces for a rainy day. When prototyping new models, you may wind up with a perfectly viable piece that’s “step along the design path”, but it’s not the final destination. Sometimes I feel bad running these bits through the bandsaw, so they go on a shelf and sit. Enter the Sully Guitars Building Blocks sale. Been waiting to pull the trigger on a Custom Series guitar but want to save some money? I catalogued all of our extra necks and bodies in the shop that are ready to be built out. Some of these items were made during prototype stages and don’t have the final specs of the most recent iteration, some have small ‘B-stock’ cosmetic issues listed below, and some are just pieces that we haven’t used yet!
The short version: use one of these parts for a custom build and you’ll save big. Below you’ll find the piece, its specs, what models it can be used for, details on condition, and how much you’ll save off of normal price by using it in one of your builds - all the way up to $1500!
When you check out with one of the Building Blocks below and pay a deposit on your custom order, you’ll then complete your specs in the relevant model order form (the model names on each Building Block handily link to the corresponding order form), and you’ll save the listed amount off of normal pricing!
Want to combine two of these, like a 624 neck and 624 body? Hit me up to claim both so you don’t have to pay two deposits. I’ll get you sorted out. Please note, however, that discounts cannot be stacked.
Final important note: these pieces are only available to be used for a compete build. I do not and will not sell bodies/necks/kits.
This is the deposit; not the total cost of the guitar. The total cost of the guitar will be determined from the specs you submit in the order form for your relevant model after you make this deposit, but with the hefty Building Blocks discount listed on this page :)
Remaining balance will be split into two payments that are due when the paint work is done and when the guitar is complete and ready to ship.

CONSPIRACY SERIES PICKUPS
These are removed from new guitars when clients upgrade their preordered Conspiracy Series guitars to our US pickups. Primarily configured for direct mount, and there may be some slight scratches here are there. Sold only in sets.
We have these from when clients upgrade their Conspiracy Series orders to our US pickups. Mostly intended for direct mount. Some light scratches may exist.

“There’s been a noticeable improvement in my dog’s behavior since getting a Sully”
While the Conspiracy Series guitars are installed with pickups wound in Korea to my specs, if you’d like the same pickups that I use in our US Customs, you can upgrade here. All pickups come with Alnico 5 magnets, but if you'd like Alnico 8 magnets or Ceramic magnets, that can be done for an additional $20 (please mention that in the notes) NOTE: Sold only in neck/bridge set, and cost of the installation includes CTS pots, output jack, and Panasonic switches.
Pickup sets are listed by “heat” - the Secret Menu is a hot PAF styled pickup and is our standard install. It’ll handle all the heavy, and it cleans up well (as does the Salty Bastard). The JardinAir is a bit of a flamethrower, so if you’re a volume knob rider, you may want to choose the Salty Bastard or the Secret Menu.
What's a PLEK? In the most basic terms, it's a robot that scans the fretboard under string tension and levels the frets and nuts slots (when applicable) perfectly. Is it absolutely necessary? No, but it's something we do on all of our US Custom builds and it will take a good playing guitar to the next level.
