Exclusive and Direct from the Fender Global Dealer event held at NAMM 2025

HANDWOUND JOSEFINA PICKUPS WITH INCREDIBLE FINISH, lightweight custom woods and immense sound!!

The whole world knows of the pre eminence of the NAMM show - for 100 years it has been the global ‘shop window’ of the world’s finest and most exclusive guitar releases. Art of Guitar were invited as a ‘Fender Global VIP dealer’ to the 2025 event and invited to participate in the auction of what can only be described as, the best of the best. With each Masterbuilder able to present 2 or maximum 3 guitars for the event - then only the very best guitars they’ve built get to be displayed. Think of it this way - which if your very best guitars wouldn’t want the world to associate your craft and excellence with.

 Armed with this knowledge and , as you’ll see, the most enviable and incredible specifications for each of the amazing instruments AOG were able to acquire a small and exclusive selection of guitars - none of them released before, many never to be released again. We limited our focus to who we view as the most exciting Masterbuilders at this movement in time and managed to secure a limited number of what we absolutely believe to be amongst the finest Masterbuild and Team Build guitars we’ve ever seen.

This 1/1 classic with vintage appointments and special micro lacquer finish comes from a long time AOG favourite Masterbuilder in Greg Fessler. Act quickly - these guitars are landing in store imminently and  pre orders already being taken…. the super thin micro nitro finish allows the premium wood to resonate and gives it a ‘one of a kind’ look, feel and playability….

And when it’s a 1/1 nitro finish lightweight Gorgeous rock machine like this with HAND WOUND JOSEFINA PUPS - you just know you’ve got an exceptional guitar that will just appreciate and appreciate whilst you rock away in style - it’s the Art of Guitar!!

JUST IN April 28 : The NAMM guitars are landing this weekend at AOG and represent the culmination of visits to Corona, debates with every Master Builder and being part of a very lucky small community of Fender Select dealers to even get an invite to the screening and the bidding. In our opinion these guitars are the Best we’ve ever managed to land from NAMM - an awesome array of styles from classics to ‘never before built’ and some in between. All of them daring colours or insane wood quality (or both) and all showcasing the best in tone possible from the Masterbuilders and Top Teambuilders .
