FOREWORD
A Fender Custom Shop instrument is extraordinary. You know it when you play one—it’s
definitely more than the sum of its parts. It’s filled with intangible, electrifying elements that
add a new dimension to your playing experience. It’s as if the instrument itself is imbued
with history, alive with the spirit of the place where it was built and the devotion of those
who crafted it.
The Custom Shop is home to Fender’s most skilled and talented builders. It’s a bustling,
noisy and creatively volcanic place that re-earns its nickname—the Dream Factory—every
day. Custom Shop builders are completely dedicated to their art—part craftsman, part
artist, part music fan and, more often than not, part mad scientist. They’re the best at what

they do, and they pour all of their passion, hard-earned knowledge and skill into every
instrument they build. It’s no ordinary place, and the creations that come from it are no
ordinary instruments. Welcome to the Fender Custom Shop.

TODD KRAUSE
Todd Krause has built exquisitely crafted custom instruments for many of the world’s greatest artists,
9 including Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, David Gilmour, Robbie Robertson, Kenny Wayne
Shepherd, Robin Trower, Roger Waters and many others.
His guitar-building apprenticeship began in early 1981 at Jackson/Charvel guitars. Krause arrived
at Fender in 1991 and steadily rose through several roles, including one-off instrument builder, R&D
model maker, and woodworking machinist. He became a Custom Shop Master Builder in 1997 and
has created countless distinctive instruments, all of which embody his personal design philosophy:
“Form and function are the biggest part of it,” he said. “It’s about the way an instrument sounds and
feels. It has to look cool, and it has to compel you to play.”
YURIY SHISHKOV
For more information go to fendercustomshop.com
From handcrafting many of his own woodworking tools to showcasing his world-
class luthier skills and custom inlay work, Yuriy Shishkov is truly one of the last of
the renaissance guitar builders. It was in the small confines of a root cellar in his
hometown of Gomel in the former Soviet Union that Shishkov got his start building
guitars for friends and colleagues.
When he arrived in the United States in 1990, Shishkov settled in the Chicago
area and collaborated with a range of top artists, including late shredder Dimebag
Darrel, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, Nuno Bettencourt and Paul Stanley of Kiss.
Shishkov joined the Fender Custom Shop’s Master Builder team in 2000, and
continues to craft truly magnificent instruments featuring exquisite detail and inlay
work as the Fender Custom Shop’s Principal Master Builder.
GREG FESSLER
FE N DE R ® C U S TO M S H O P
Greg Fessler came to the Fender Custom Shop in 1990, working
his way up through the ranks as an apprentice. He assisted with
the Robben Ford signature line of guitars, eventually becoming the
sole builder of those instruments and, later, Ford’s personal builder.
Fessler has built one-off Stratocaster and Telecaster models for
a host of players, including Joe Bonnamasa, Jeff Healey, Hank
Marvin, John Mayer, Rhonda Smith,Neil Schon and Pete Wentz,
to name a few.
RON THORN
Ron Thorn brings his decades of expertise in

Inlay—which has been the sole inlay provider
for the Fender Custom Shop since the mid-90s.
He’s also built more than 800 custom instruments
under the name Thorn Guitars. Thorn is among
the first to assume the title Principal Master
Builder—one of the highest honors in the Fender
Custom Shop and the guitar building community.

DENNIS GALUSZKA
Like Fender itself, Dennis Galuszka is a Southern California native. Combining his dual passions
for music and woodworking, he began building high-end acoustic guitars during his 13 years as a
cabinetmaker. As a working drummer, it was a 1999 audition with one of the Fender Master Builders
that led to a job interview and a new kind of steady gig—as an apprentice at the Fender Custom Shop.
After only eight months there, Galuszka was promoted to Master Builder. He has since built finely
crafted instruments for influential players including Paul McCartney, Andy Summers, Johnny Marr,
Patrick Stump, Mike Dirnt, Sting and many others. He has lent his expertise to a number of truly

distinctive instruments, including double-neck guitars and unusual takes on classic Fender designs
along with several artist models. “It’s all about the feel and sound of an instrument,” Galuszka said.
“Those things are number one with me, above everything else.”

Custom Shop frets are made from only the highest quality nickel, and can be made in a
variety of different heights and thicknesses. Larger frets tend to account for easier string
bending. Smaller frets are “true to vintage” in many cases, and facilitate easier chording.
Medium jumbo frets are designed to be the perfect marriage between small vintage frets
and modern jumbo frets. Keep the following examples in mind when choosing the frets
that you want on your guitar.

NOTICE REGARDING USE OF HISTORIC PATENT NUMBERS/MARKINGS: FENDER is proud to offer some of the most iconic musical instruments and amplifiers
of the past 60 years. Some FENDER products are intentional recreations or reissues of vintage guitars and amplifiers, and may therefore incorporate markings or text 66
associated with original patents that have since expired. Specific examples of such models include patent numbers on the tremolo plates and decals of the JAGUAR®
and JAZZMASTER® guitars, “Pat Pending” on some vintage TELECASTER® guitar bridge plates, and “Design and Circuits Patented” language on the control panels of
certain model amplifiers in FENDER Vintage Modified, Vintage Reissue and Custom lines. Such markings are included only for the sake of historical accuracy, and are not
intended to denote or imply live patents or ongoing patent protection.
