  The brainchild of Sarah Tyler, the 35th Anniversary Studio Elite commemorates the birth year of the Studio Elite with Jim's iconic headstock design: 1987. This year marks a pivotal moment when Jim transitioned to full-time guitar building, leaving behind mods and repairs for good. With the guitar turning 35 years old in 2022, it was only fitting to celebrate its rich history.
  To honor this milestone, every aspect of the guitar reflects California craftsmanship and tones, paying homage to the early Tylers made with Mamywo. The guitar features lead/rhythm circuits with mid-boost preamps, reminiscent of those classic models. Additionally, to infuse a touch of modernity, Tyler incorporated the Stingray 500 pickups with the new cancelling coil circuit.
