Yes thats right, it says the "custom shop". Now Im just researching some information I was given a while back and I would like to know if they were talking out of their rear end. I enquired in my local Dawsons Music store (in not so sunny Warrington, UK) as to how I would get hold of the specific Precision Bass guitar Colin Greenwood (from Radiohead) uses. I was informed after many visits, that this Bass is made specifically for Mr Greenwood, by one specific man, and it takes him 6 months to process. And on top of the long haul wait, it would cost £6000 (not sure in Dollars). Thats £1000 a month. Wow.
Now the Bass in question is (I think) a Fender '77 Precision, either Olympic White, or Vintage white (could be Olympic white come to think of it but very gigged and well played) with either a Black pickguard or tortoiseshell pickguard. To cut a long story short, could somebody who maybe knows, help out.

Ben dawsons have told you the correct average price and procedure for ordering a custom built replica of the guys guitar. They are being a bit generous with the timespan. From experiences noted here i'd expect to wait a year to 18months.
