Gobble!

One made by a human. Kids in Asia don't count.

If I can text or call the person that made it and talk about the call with him that's custom enough for me.

I totally agree with turkeywhisper935 on that one. That's what I would consider a custom call would be to me also.

If you get it directly from the guy that made it, it's custom.

My experience has been that I call the maker and talk about the surface I am interested in.  They ask the tone I like.  Also discuss wood preference and color.  It is made to my specs and usually sent with extra strikers to try.  I pick the ones I like and send the others back.

I think there is a distinction between handmade and custom.  I have a handmade call from a guy that runs his own shop, but I do not consider it custom.  He has a line that he sells that are all the same.  I may put a Yeti sticker on it to make it custom.
