Anyone got insight on the general accuracy of the Custom Shop delivery estimates for team and master built guitar orders? LIke if they quote 8-10 month delivery time for an order is that quite accurate or can that actually really mean more like 6 to 15 months (or more) possible delivery time?

Would like to hear the experience of people who have custom ordered guitars in the past.

When I ordered in 2010 a limited edition custom shop 65 reissue Strat with AA flame neck, it took about 6 months, but the wait was worth it. The wait time is nothing like some guitar companies are.

What was the estimate wait time you were given when you ordered?

About 90 days, but somehow my order got lost in the pile and Mike E. from the custom shop put a fire under the order and got my guitar to me, plus the fender rep sent me a goodie package for me being so patient on my order. Mike E. made sure my guitar was built the way I had the order put in. That was great customer service from Fender. Not many guitar companies do that anymore and that is why I am life time customer with Fender.

I was told between 6 - 8 months if I remember correctly, and it was pretty spot on. I was blown away (and still am, some 5 months later) by the guitar. Every single aspect of it.
