Design your own guitar online with DesignMyGuitar
DMG (DesignMyGuitar) is a new independent guitar brand of Belgian origin. It is unique in that it allows the guitar player to design their own guitar online. The guitar differs from other custom-built guitar brands because the standard models are very affordable. The website platform DesignMyGuitar.com will be online October 1st, 2009.
The process for designing a guitar can be divided in 3 main steps and creates a big fun factor for guitar lovers, even if there is no intention to buy a guitar.
Step 1:
Choosing the body style. Different body styles are available. The type names will be DM-ST (Strat-style), DM-TE (Tele-style) and DM-LP (Les Paul-style).
Step 2:
Designing the body. Many different pre-defined templates are available to be adapted, personalized, or redesigned. People who want to make a completely new design or want to upload their own, can start from scratch. This part of the website is called the "Design Tool".

Step 3:
Every body style has standard quality hardware. The "Option Tool" allows the user to upgrade pickups, bridges, tuners, etc. For example, pickups are available from Fender, EMG, & Seymour Duncan.
The products are standard quality guitars existing of (depending of the model) solid alder body, hard maple, or mahogany necks, rosewood fingerboards, etc. The user can save his personalized guitar, re-edit it, or make various designs of it. T
he prices of the guitars will start at €200. Full-option guitars (including Seymour Duncan pickups, Grover tuners, Bigsby vibrato, etc.) will never exceed €1000. The guitars will be shipped worldwide and will have a delivery time of approximately 14 working days.
The website platform will be online October 1st, 2009.

That's true, but it is fun. I created a tele with the Playboy bunny. Maybe I order it, it is even nice to hang on the wall.

So it isn't really design your own guitar, it's more design your own paint job/graphics.
