Hey Sully, what kind of guitars do you build?
Sully Guitars are divided into two categories; our Custom Series guitars are made in the US while the Conspiracy Series are made in South Korea. Most of the Custom Series models are represented in the Conspiracy Series. While the Conspiracy Series guitars are often less than half the cost of the Custom Series, they’re packed with features and have been toured around the globe.
Don’t forget to check out what’s in stock now and ready to ship.

What about basses? How about 7 strings? Wouldja make me a baritone?
Of corpse!
While basses, 7s, and baritones aren’t something we make a lot of, we DO make them as part of our Custom Series.
Custom Series options
Headstocks
Headstocks; they can either complement or clash with the overall look of the instrument. While I know I can't please everyone, I'd like to think that we've got some great looking options for you. The Raven headstock can be ordered in standard orientation or reversed (as shown). The Aero headstock is available for all models except the 622 and 625, the Raven headstock is available on all models except the '71, and the Raven Traditional is available on the 622 and 625 models.
Inlays
Here are some examples of our standard inlays. We do custom inlays, too, but we don’t do inlays that are associated with other manufacturers (sharfkins, for example).
Pickups
We use our own. We’ve got a handful of humbuckers and single coils that sound great and are super versatile. You can learn more about them (and get some for yourself) here
Construction options
The 622, 624, 624T, and Stardusts are bolt on guitars, while the set neck models are the '71, Raven (also available as a bolt on), Concorde, and Revolution. Figured tops are certainly available, as well as matching headplates (and truss rod covers if you ask). By default, I use stainless steel frets for a permanent slinky feel, but if you want traditional nickel, that's all good, too.
Paint options
I'm pretty flexible on colors; as long as I can find a paint code (or a swatch), we're good. Here are a few samples of solid colors, trans finishes, and metal flake finishes to get the wheels turning.
Trans finishes
Here are some samples of our more popular transparent finishes. Check out the Glamazon finishes, too; proving that you can still have a little shimmer with your burst,
Solids/Metallics
Here are some samples of our more popular solid color and metallic finishes.
Sparkles/Pearls
We have a motto in Sullyville, and that’s “Make it Fucking Sparkle.” Of course, that doesn’t mean that everything gets glitter bombed, but it’s a lot of fun when it happens.
sully, your guitars are shiny and pretty. I want something that looks RAtty. you got somethin' for me?
Yes.
Let's face it, I'm a big fan of bright, sparkly things. I also love having something brand new that looks like it's been with you for years. And no; no one is dragging guitars behind cars here. Take a look at the gallery below for some Sully guitars that have that worn in look. Aging is done on a sliding scale; you can go from "stored in a case for 30 years" to "stop the fight!" and anywhere in between.
What else?
Planning a custom order is exciting and can be a lot of fun, and I’ll do everything I can to assist in building your dream guitar. During the build process, you’ll get pictures, updates, and an open channel of communication. It's an honor to build tools for musicians that help them communicate. We’ve all got our ideas and preferences, and I’d love to work with you to make a special guitar that makes you smile when you see it, and gets out of your way and lets you create when you play it.
