The ’59 Triple Divine is a tantalizing homage to Danelectro’s historic Deluxe series. This formidable axe channels the power and range of a vintage ’59 DC-3 Deluxe Shorthorn with three Vintage ’50s Lipstick pickups, a light and energizing double-cutaway body, and versatile 5-way pickup switching. These lipstick pickups are extremely faithful to the classic Danelectro sound — plucky and jangly when clean but with enough definition to handle everything from overdrive to fuzz. The sealed semi-hollowbody’s spruce frame not only fuels unique resonance, but also makes for effortless playability when standing for long periods — perfect for studio sessions, young players, or adults looking to mitigate the stress and strains of heavy instruments! Whether you want to tap into vintage tones or simply need an airy alternative to your solidbody guitars, the Danelectro ’59 Triple Divine is a choice worth making.

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.

  Hombre, Suhr’s take on the classic Brownface tones that have inspired John Suhr since his early days as a guitarist. The intention was clear: create a modern take on these classic designs while preserving the vintage heritage.
  The purity of the signal path is part of Hombre’s beauty. It results in a playing experience that is incredibly dynamic and touch-sensitive. A simple turn of the volume and tone controls will put a shocking range of sound at your fingertips.
  Clean tones are classic, gorgeous and bell-like, but make no mistake, this amp is a dirty little combo. It wants to be pushed into sweet overdrive, conjuring tones from the 1970s era of Texas blues-rock.
  The onboard Dynamic Tube Bias tremolo imparts an unmistakably rich, sought after sound, that simply can’t be imitated.

  The PRS Silver Sky is the result of a close collaboration between Grammy Award-winning musician John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith. More than two and half years in the making, the Silver Sky is a vintage-inspired instrument that is at once familiar but also newly PRS through and through. This model was based off of Mayer and Smith's favorite elements from 1963 and 1964 vintage instruments, resulting in an idealized version of a vintage single-coil guitar. The attention that was paid to every detail sets this guitar apart.
  "It's been a dream of mine for years to design a guitar that includes some of my favorite vintage specifications but with a modern spirit and aesthetic. After two years of study and refinement, the Silver Sky is my vision of what a reboot of the electric guitar should look and feel like." – John Mayer

The 50th Anniversary AD14ce-SB LTD embodies five decades of Taylor history. The Sitka spruce /walnut tonewood pairing traces back to Bob Taylor's earliest guitars, many of which were crafted in the humble workshop that gave the American Dream Series its name. That combination yields a warm, woody midrange response with clear projection and articulation, enhanced with improved volume and sustain thanks to the V-Class bracing inside. Following the distilled, neo-vintage design ethos of its American Dream counterparts, this limited-edition model features chamfered body edges, clean Italian acrylic dot inlays, a firestripe pickguard and a thin matte finish with a hand-sprayed tobacco sunburst top treatment. This highly versatile Grand Auditorium includes a commemorative interior label and ES2 electronics. It ships with a lightweight, yet super-durable AeroCase.

  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.
