A mid-'50s Danelectro U2 will set you back a pretty penny — provided you can even get your hands on one. Fortunately for players today, the modern Danelectro 57 brings all the style, flair, and tone of the originals to a high-performance modern instrument. The Dano 57's center-blocked, semi-hollow construction and Vintage '50s Lipstick pickups give you the spank, chime, grit, and chunk of a real-deal vintage original. Tone toggling and voice tailoring are easily done using the 57's rugged 3-way switch and space-saving concentric volume/tone controls. Cream-buttoned Gotoh tuning machines, a U3 intonatable saddle bridge, and a dual-action truss rod give the modern '57 a leg up on a true '50s model.

Jangle, gristle, snarl, and soul: the late-’50s Danelectro sound is unmistakable. With a double-cut Shorthorn body shape and vintage Lipstick pickups, the Danelectro Fifty Niner DC semi-hollowbody electric guitar oozes with early rock’ n’ roll attitude. The Fifty Niner DC’s lightweight hardboard/spruce body delivers the signature Dano sound — a lively, assertive warmth somewhere between a solidbody and a more traditional semi-hollowbody, complete with a center block for feedback suppression, so you can always pair the Fifty Niner DC with your favorite pedals and effects. You’ll love how the Fifty Niner’s lightweight build provides all-night comfort onstage without the delicate fragility of traditional semi-hollowbody electrics. The Fifty Niner DC’s maple neck and rosewood fingerboard keep playability agile and fluid, while the Shorthorn body shape provides excellent access to frets closest to the body

Guitars in the LTD 1000 Series are designed to offer the tone, feel, looks, and quality that working professional musicians need in an instrument. The EC-1000T/CTM is an instant classic, with its traditional full-thickness single-cutaway mahogany body shape (no waist cut) and classy flamed maple top in Violet Shadow finish. The “CTM” stands for its custom multi-ply binding, situated on both the front and back or the body as well as neck and headstock. Details like a matching flamed maple headstock also make this guitar stand out from the crowd. You’ll find that just about any tone is possible on the EC-1000T/CTM with its set of direct-mount Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker pickups. Each pickup offers three voicings, selectable with push-pull controls. On the neck pickup, Voice 1 offers the coveted vintage PAF tone, Voice 2 is an airy chime, and Voice 3 is a vintage single-coil. For the bridge pickup, Voice 1 is the PAF, Voice 2 is the classic hot-rodded humbucker, and Voice 3 is an overwound single coil. The resulting sonic versatility of this guitar is astounding. The EC-1000T/CTM also includes a Macassar ebony fingerboard with white pearloid ESP flag inlays and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, LTD locking tuners, and a TonePro locking TOM bridge and tailpiece.

  This CE 24 Semi-Hollow features an unusual Quilted Faded Gray with Green Burst.
  Combining the snap and sustain of a bolt-on guitar with the airy resonance of a semi-hollow body, the CE 24 Semi-Hollow is a truly unique addition to the PRS Bolt-On lineup. The body pairs the traditional combination of a mahogany back and maple top with a bolt-on maple neck and rosewood fretboard.

  Introducing Myles Kennedy’s first signature model. Known for his work in Alter Bridge, Slash and the Conspirators, and his own solo recordings, Kennedy is an accomplished guitarist who brings blues and jazz style to rock guitar playing. This new signature model mirrors Kennedy’s rock sensibilities with a nod to historic designs. While the aesthetic may have players hearing chicken pickin’ in their heads – and this guitar can certainly reach twang territory – it is made to play like a rock machine.
  "This guitar captures the spirit of my favorite older instruments. With that said, since we developed this guitar, most of my vintage instruments rarely see the light of day," said Kennedy.

  This Studio features a gorgeous 10-Top with Cobalt Smokeburst finish, and Pattern neck carve.
  The PRS Studio model is a modern take on a traditional single-single-hum guitar. With PRS’s proprietary Narrowfield pickups in the middle and bass positions and a 58/15 LT humbucking treble pickup, the PRS Studio offers punchy single-coils, vintage scooped tones, and the chunky kick of a treble humbucker screaming in one instrument. This whole new scope of sounds (that are only possible with a three-pickup guitar) are easily accessible in the Studio model thanks to the push/pull tone control and 5-way blade switch. With seven combinations in all, the PRS Studio covers classic tones but maintains a unique voice making it a perfect “desert island” guitar.
