OK, guitar lovers. Meet your new favorite instrument. These handmade electric guitars feature that Schoen Turbo look, dripping the electric oozings of some of the world's greatest hand-wound guitar pickups by Ty Jones, Jason Lollar and Seymour Duncan.

Semi-hollow bodies with twin sound development chambers, warm, hand-rubbed finishes subtly present fine curly koa, figured black walnut, flamed sycamore, American cherry, figured ash - exquisite American woods of yesterday. Edges bound with fine protective, tactile, hand-tooled leather.

These guitars feature necks of finely made mahogany with a properly angled headstock and superfine rosewood fingerboard, set into the body with a 3-degree backset angle for fantastic tone.

Hand-tooled materials provide an Industrial Revolution era contrast to the fine woods. Control plates and tailpieces exude a satin, familiar warmth that just seems to agree with the fine woods, and ties the urges of nature to the cold reality of the electric inside.

These guitars are the kinds of stars that are their own stage. Ready to meet yours? Check out our photo gallery.
