As Made Famous By
1997 Fender 62 Reissue Jazzmaster,
Three Tone Sunburst,
as made famous by Thurston Moore
OK, it's not an original 60s Jazzmaster, and it isn't black and covered in stickers, but it just feels right to pay tribute to one of the world's most adventurous sonic experimenters and influencers, permanently on the playlist of any grunge or indie hero that followed.
2000 Gibson Les Paul
Gary Moore Signature,
Lemonburst
No, not the "Greeny" original, but the first and best Gibson Gary Moore Signature, complete with unbelievable Burstbucker pick-ups. A signature model Gary often played live himself.
2004 Gibson Les Paul Standard Slash Signature Model, Dark Tobacco,
as made famous by Slash
Slash's main guitar during the Velvet Revolver years, one of 1250 made, and one of the best of his many signature models. In his own words: "It actually screams".
2006 Fender Jaguar 62 Reissue,
Three Tone Sunburst,
From Surf To Shoegaze To Grunge
The Fender Jaguar, the high-end model that had to be discontinued before it found its devoted players - and, ever since then, beloved by punk, indie and alt-rock pioneers across the world. This sunburst beauty takes you right back to its 1962 launch!
2006 Martin D-18VS,
Natural, as made famous by
Michael Kiwanuka
Vintage Series Martin D-18, iconic classic, with a 12-fret design inspired by the original D-18s from the early 1930s. Michael Kiwanuka's shared the love for D-18s throughout his career, often to be seen with a sunburst D-18VS in his early years. The perfect compadre, whatever your style.
1997 Fender SRV Stratocaster,
Three Tone Sunburst,
as made famous by Stevie Ray
A truly iconic Stratocaster. It doesn't take much to guess whose signature model this is. That bold "SRV" print on the pickguard gives it all away. A standard production model, but everything about this guitar is tribute to one of the greatest guitarists there's ever been.
2002 Epiphone Union Jack
Supernova, Red, White & Blue,
as made famous by Noel Gallagher
From the original run of Epiphone Supernovas, this guitar screams "Britpop". Noel Gallagher's original is now a museum piece, so it's models like these that keep the glory days alive.
2005 Burns/Brian May Guitars
BMG Special,
as made famous by Brian May
Made during the transition period from Burns to Brian May Guitars, the utterly unique Red Special that has powered Brian May through the Queen years & beyond.
2006 Fender Stratocaster,
Mexican Standard, Arctic White,
as made famous by Alex Turner
When Arctic Monkeys made their ground-breaking debut with Whatever People Say That's What I'm Not, this is the guitar that Alex Turner played. In Arctic White, of course.
2011 Fender Graham Coxon Telecaster,
as made famous by Graham Coxon
Based on Graham Coxon's modified '68 Telecaster, one of the first of the limited run signature models - and one that he still plays today, in itself a testament to its greatness.
1997 Yamaha LA-8,
Antique Natural,
as made famous by Gaz Coombes
One of Gaz Coombes' workhorses through the years. Hand-crafted in Yamaha's Custom Shop, this guitar punches well above its weight, with a styling and tone that goes way beyond its original price tag.
2002 Fender Toronado,
Orange,
as made famous by John Frusciante
2002 Fender Toronado. Deluxe Series beauty from Mexico, Atomic humbuckers, and wide tonal range. As orange as they come, just like the one John Frusciante played on Can't Stop. You know when you've been Toronado'd ;-).
2005 Eastwood Airline 2P DLX,
Red,
as made famous by Jack White
Seven Nation Army. The song that earned The White Stripes a worthy Number 6 place in Rolling Stone's Top 100 Songs of the 00s - and launched a thousand football (and political) chants. This perfectly space-age, perfectly retro guitar.
2006 Gibson Hummingbird,
Heritage Cherry Sunburst,
as made famous by Keith Richards
Keith Richards' first choice acoustic since 1964. Yes, this one's a younger model, but it's a design that's barely changed over the years. The pedigree, quality and tone is all there. A glorious guitar to play. Wild horses couldn't drag me away.
2016 Fender Johnny Marr Jaguar,
Olympic White,
as made famous by Johnny Marr
"It sounds like I'm supposed to sound." In his own words, and with his own design, the signature model that brings together everything Johnny Marr in one guitar. A gift from a lifelong lover of guitars to lovers of guitars.
