Testimonials
“I got a Stratocaster made by Cibelli customs and let me tell you. The craftsmanship and beauty of Lou’s work is impeccable. More than what I could’ve asked for. It looks factory made but has a handmade feel and vibe to it that is unprecedented. I was talking to Lou throughout the process, getting constant updates of photos and videos of the build that made it that much more exciting when it was in my hands. Lou saw the vision I had and made it a reality. I’ve had the guitar for almost two years now and have had no issues. It really is a head turner. I would highly recommend if you are looking for the perfect axe for you.”

“Let me start off by stating that at present time I currently own 10 guitars and over the course of 40 years I have bought, sold and traded many, many more. That being said, no guitar has ever come close to my Cibelli Custom. All of the guitars I currently own and have owned in the past have felt as just musical instruments. Absolutely there have been notable differences in quality, but they all were and remain musical instruments. My Cibelli Custom feels much more like an extension of myself. From the moment I first picked it up, it just felt right. This comes from the ability to select the woods, electronics, hardware and tweaking of specs that come only come from a custom build. I made suggestions and Lou carefully considered them all to achieve what I easily consider the best guitar I have ever owned. It just feels right. The sustain is beyond that of any other. The design aspects are absolutely astonishing and the fact that Lou was able to personalize my guitar with custom inlays for fret markers, of which I chose an outline of my dog, made this guitar 100% MY guitar. I could not be any happier with MY guitar. Besides having a fantastic sounding instrument with unmatched playability, it is an absolutely beautiful work of art that is proudly displayed in my home for all to see.”
Thank you again for this guitar Lou. It means more to me than you could ever imagine. I am so very grateful.”
