Do your homework. Some custom companies are great and others are junk.
I have been using Matthews Custom Rods. He will walk you through what you want and the ones I have are great. They are top quality, great finish, and best of all catch fish! haha

I think the only reason to get a custom rod is for the placement of guides and which type you want. I get spiral rods made with 12-14 guides on a rod. there isn't a mass produced rod that is spiral with that many guides. and if there is I bet it cost way more then what I pay for a rod.
