MJ Guitars is fast approaching our 35th year of building custom high quality guitars and we are introducing a second generation of guitar builders. Here are some of our great accomplishments throughout the years.



Build for Mark Reischenbock
This was a special gift for my husband. Matching guitar and amp based after a 1965 Mustang GT350, only 1500 of the real cars were made. This was one of my favorite projects we have done because I was able to come up with the theme and concept. And for those asking, yes, those are real car parts. Did you notice the exhaust ports on the amp?
We recently sent a photo to Carroll Shelby and about a month later he sent us a response stating that that our theme guitar was beautiful.
Wouldn't it be awesome to have a guitar and amp that matched your car? Well we're ¾ of the way there. Any 65' GT350 owners out there?

Build for Herb Genelly
This was a very fun project and definitely a ONE OF A KIND. Herb a retired fire fighter gave us unlimited creativity on this guitar. If you notice the knobs are fire hydrants made right here at the factory. The back cover features 4 buttons that make different fire related sounds. And how fitting the neck and top are made from Flame Maple. The scene on the fingerboard shows Herb putting out a fire. Inlay done by Larry Robinson

Guitar Players 35th Anniversary Mirage

This specially made Mirage sports an emerald green pearl finish, custom inlayed knobs and switch knob. Chrome hardware and a Fishman Power bridge and power chip.

Here is what the winner plans to do: "The guitar will be displayed first at the Discover House (a/k/a Funhouse) on Orcas Island, Washington. This is an exploratorium museum with an area dedicated to music (It was built and owned by Jim Bredeau, owner of LA Studios). Next I am in touch with the curator of the new Museum of Rock and Roll (a/k/a Experience Music Project), Seattle's $200 million museum located at the Space Needle, and they seem interested in possibly exhibiting the guitar."


Dr. Suess Mirage built for Larry Robinson
This guitar is moderately inlayed and heavily accessorize with a Sustainiac Sustainer and a Roland Synth pickup, with many knobs and switches.
The top is finished with the chroma flair green to purple color shifting finish.

Custom Catalina LX!
I just can't find the words to describe this guitar. Everytime I try I get all choked up.
Inlay by Larry Robinson
SOLD $10,000


The ?????? (we don't know what to call it, ask Lyle Workman from Beck who had this custom designed to his specs)
I think this guitar came from somewhere in space. We received the coveted KNOB AWARD for this guitar. It sports a Sustainac Sustainer and a built in Kaoss Pad FX with red to gold color shifting finish.
We lost a bit of sanity on this project.


MJ Custom Roadster
This guitar was so much fun to build because it's owner Vince would come by every Monday morning to check on its progress. We would have coffee and donuts and laugh and goof around for about an hour.
The swamp ash body and maple top made this guitar very light without squashing the high end. I really like the matching headstock on this guitar.


MJ Custom Roadster
The top is bookmatched Koa with a black veneer separating it from the swamp ash back. This guitar uses Seymour Duncan pickups custom mounted to minimize their appearance. The light tobacco finish and gold hardware make this moderately priced guitar look like a million bucks.
