Does Suhr have a Custom Shop, one to which we can send some of our "private stock" wood and get a model of theirs made with it?

We can do it and we've done a few in the past, but we can't guarantee that the woods will work out. Also, things do happen during production processes and we do end up throwing away woods and semi-finished guitars. Some of the woods that customers have sent in have warped during production or shown to have knots in the woods after we sand them down. We throw away our own woods all the time (up to 40%) because it's impossible to predict how woods will behave once we get started on 'em. So, as long as you can accept the possibility that the woods you provide may not work out, we can try, but in all honesty, due to the number of problems we've had with customer-supplied woods, we'd rather not.
