Last I heard, Cordoba had no plans for a custom shop. Have they changed that? Has Addie changed his diapers?

Not sure who made that statement. Actually Guild in Oxnard has already done special models (like special colors) for some artists. So they do customization in certain cases already. Not yet for ordering by the general public however.
See as one of multiple such examples here (note the special branded bracing!). That's as close to a custom shop as it can get!

Thanks, Ralf!! It's good to know they're doing this and seems the Oxnard crew are doing well by the Guild brand. I'd never read this story before.

Danke sehr
I don't know if the limited run production of 15 (or so-est.) D 40 T Deluxe models for Sweetwater would be considered Custom Shop but I can tell you it is one fine guitar. Light as a feather and resonance/sustain that just won't quite. I actually ended up with two of them, just one digit apart on the serial #'s.
Of course you did.

Also there were the M-20 and M-40 models done for Nikki Lane, like the M-40 in Daphne Blue and the one in the video, see discussion and pictures here:

Nikki Lane Signature M-40 in Daphne Blue
Guild artist Nikki Lane, who played a GAD M-20 already like 10 years ago and later the new Oxnard made M-20 had already a new blue one in 2018 and now just a fews days ago visited the Oxnard factory again where Guild showed the "Signature M-40 in Daphne Blue". Not sure if this will be a model...
