Calling all Sydney folks and beyond! Fenech guitars will be exhibition on the 7th and 8th of March.
We will be bringing an amazing line up of guitars, a specially curated bunch of Masterbuilt guitars and our new Makers Choice series! You won’t want to miss this.

Over the next two weeks we will be doing some video previews of the Masterbuilt guitars that we are bringing and you will get a sneak peak and listen. For those who wish to reserve an even more in depth look into one prior to the show this can also be arranged as we expect these guitars won’t hand around long!

I really enjoyed building this guitar!
This Masterbuilt was a customer order through in Victoria and is Masterbuilt number 3 for the customer.
Just an amazing looking and sounding instrument!
Congratulations 🙌

John has travelled all the way from the USA to personally collect his Masterbuilt guitar (No. 3) from our new Fenech workshop. It was great to welcome him back again.

John even spoilt the team with some Krispy Kreme donuts, which was a nice surprise.

On his last visit to Australia, John spent time with us selecting the tonewoods and appointments for his guitar. He connected with the passion behind our craft and valued being part of the full Masterbuilt experience from the very beginning.

Seeing John’s tonewood choices come to life through our craftsmanship and experiencing his guitar for the first time is what a Fenech Masterbuilt guitar is all about.

If you are considering a Masterbuilt guitar of your own, feel free to get in touch to discuss the possibilities

If you’ve spent time in our workshop, you’ve probably crossed paths with Leon — the quiet force behind our finishes.

Finishing is one of those stages that’s incredibly hard to hand over. I’d done it myself for years, and there’s a feel for it that can’t be taught — only earned through repetition, patience, and obsession with detail. It’s not just sanding and spraying; it’s knowing when to stop, when to push, and how each layer affects the guitar beneath.

Leon has mastered that balance. His work doesn’t just look beautiful — it protects the voice of the instrument. Together, we share an understanding of finish techniques that enhance the guitar visually without compromising the time and care poured into voicing the soundbox.

These are the first gloss coats going on to an all-Australian Blackwood Masterbuilt. Watch that grain open up. By the end, Leon will know every curve and contour of this guitar — because he’s touched every one of them, many times over.

That dedication is what you see, hear, and feel in every Fenech guitar.

This Grand Auditorium Masterbuilt is all about detail and intention.
Crelicam Ebony back and sides bring depth and power, while the custom inlays — expertly created in-house — reflect the personal story and vision of its new owner.

If you’re considering having your very own Masterbuilt guitar commissioned, feel free to get in touch. We offer the only true custom guitar experience in Australia, with an outstanding range of rare and exotic tonewoods to choose from.

Another Masterbuilt guitar heading off to meet its new owner.

We couldn’t be happier with how this one turned out. The figuring in the Australian Blackwood top, back and sides is simply stunning, beautifully complemented by Cocobolo bindings and a vine-leaf fingerboard inlay. Finished to the finest detail, it’s fitted with Gotoh 510 Cosmic Black machine heads and an LR Baggs HiFi Duet, then safely packed in our custom-fit TKL flight case.

Always special sending a guitar out into the world 🎸✨

A quick look at how we fit the back to the sides.

There are many ways to do this, but this method gives us the cleanest, most accurate results. Carefully relieving material so every brace seats perfectly takes time, but it delivers a beautifully clean internal fit.

Gluing the back on before the top lets us clean up every detail — which is why the inside of a Fenech guitar looks as tidy as the outside.

Faster isn’t always better. And no one has ever said, “I wish this guitar was built quicker.”
