Welcome to the custom guitar site, where you can find all your information on custom guitars.
One of the best parts of your guitar to upgrade and customize is the truss rod cover. The reason for this is that it is a simple and cheap customization that you can do yourslef, and it can actually improve the appearance of your guitar quite a bit.
Most guitar makers choose the truss rod cover to put their brand names and model numbers. Instead of having this information listed there, a sure sign of a mass produced guitar, getting a new truss rod cover could give your instrument a much more custom and handmade look.

This is a very natural and organic looking custom archtop guitar. Great for jazz and acoustic sets, an instrument like this will get a nice wooden tone and bring out the true sound of the strings. One great thing about custom guitars is that they can really have a hand made look like this one, and that is much better than the mass produced guitars that all look the same.

This is an interesting custom electric guitar. It is made to look like its been constructed out of steel, which is complete with rust marks and other imperfections. This shows the great variety that you can find in custom guitars, and how they can be made with almost any look you can think of.

This is the back of a custom acoustic guitar that features some very nice looking Brazilian Rosewood and Adirondack Spruce. The look of the wood on this back is natural and organic. The good thing about custom acoustic guitar makers is that they will use wood that produces better sounds and looks, and this can help you create better music and inspire you to practice more. The wood is very important in an acoustic instrument and many times the factory guitar makers do not use anything remarkable. You can tell that this is an instrument that will sound like a guitar should.

Getting a custom made guitar, or modifying your guitar with custom guitar parts is more than just a meaningless extravagance. It is also more than having a better sounding and easier to play instrument, although that is obviously a big part of it. What is important about a custom guitar is that it reflect your values, that it integrate your individual values and likes into the form of an instrument.
The fact is, when you get a regular factory made guitar, you may not be happy with every aspect of it. There may be a few parts that you wish were a different material or color, but you deal with it. Most people will not take the time to customize their guitars in this case, but it should be done.
