The Premium Lounge

Commemorating the 30th anniversary of Nirvana's seminal record "Nevermind," this Jag-Stang comes equipped with the same features that made it Kurt's ideal instrument. Although Kurt Cobain was seen playing a variety of Fender guitars over the years, his Fender Jaguar and Mustang remain the most iconic due to their use on the "Nevermind" tour and "Smells Like Teen Spirit" music video. Kurt designed the Jag-Stang to combine his favorite elements of both instruments and brought it to life with help from the Fender Custom Shop in 1993. The Alder body delivers a punchy tone perfect for big power chords, the 24" short-scale reduces string tension for easier playing, and the 7.25" radius Rosewood fingerboard with Maple neck has a comfortable feel that won't fatigue your hands when chording. The vintage-style single-coil and custom humbucking pickups are perfect for recreating Kurt's classic tones, while the Mustang slider switches provide the flexibility to dial in four distinct settings for a variety of in or out-of-phase tones.

Since the dawn of rock and roll, the snap and response that comes from a bolt-on neck guitar has been an essential part of the mix.

The neck sports a Pattern Thin carve and satin nitro finish for a natural, addictive feel.

While the TransAcoustic's electronics deserve acclaim, the guitar is a high-quality acoustic instrument in its own right. With a single strum you'll notice the detail and warmth of the guitar's A.R.E.-treated solid spruce top. Yamaha's A.R.E. technology artificially ages the wood, achieving the clarity of tone found on great vintage instruments. The FSC-TA acoustic is a high-quality instrument that delivers an acoustic experience like no other concert-sized body. With mahogany back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top you're sure to love the rich overtones and sustain. You'll love the feel of this guitar's fast-action neck and smooth, bound rosewood fingerboard. The guitar's calling card is its onboard reverb and chorus effects. What sets them apart from other instruments with onboard effects is that these don't require any external amplification. Engage the effects via the simple-to-use controls and you'll experience and acoustic experience like playing in a rich, ambient venue. And when it's time for the gig, you can access those same great tones plugged in through the guitar's System70 pickup system.

The Custom 22 was introduced in 1993 and based off the Dragon, it shares a lot of similar specifications like the carved flame Maple top, Mahogany body, Maple neck, and Rosewood fingerboard. Where it differs is the bolt on neck construction providing a little more snap to each note, nickel plated PRS locking tuners, 6-point PRS tremolo tailpiece, and abalone dot inlays. This Custom 22 shows moderate wear and for good reason! Players will still enjoy this amazing USA built electric 25 years later with a .82" first fret depth and 1.7" nut width. In 1998, the Dragon 2 pickups were introduced to this model. Dragon II pickups deliver warm, vintage-leaning tone, but with a higher output than typical vintage pickups so they can cover more styles of music. Master volume, tone, and a 5-way rotary switch unlock split series, split parallel, and humbucking tones with just a twist. Hardshell case included.

Handmade in Japan with select tonewoods and premium build quality, Yamaha's AC5R Concert acoustic-electric guitar offers a vintage look with enhanced volume in the low-mid ranges, due to new scalloped bracing for the top and shorter bracing on the guitar's back. With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides, this concert-sized guitar sounds fantastic. It also benefits from Yamaha's A.R.E. wood torrefaction, a high-heat treatment that gives the guitar top greater stability and an aged, vintage hue. The Yamaha AC5R takes full advantage of Yamaha's unobtrusive and versatile SRT2 pickup system for recording and stage performance. You get volume, treble, and bass controls (with auto feedback reduction), and blend control allows you to balance between the piezo and SRT2 preamp, for your own distinctive tone.

The PRS SE DGT (David Grissom Trem) brings David Grissom’s signature model to the SE Series for the first time. Based on the McCarty platform, the DGT model has been a constant favorite since its introduction in 2007, thanks to Grissom’s deep knowledge of vintage guitars and his painstaking attention to detail. Every feature on the SE DGT has been considered from the neck shape to the fret choice and dressing, from the colors to the pickups and electronics layout.

The SE DGT features vintage-voiced humbuckers paired with individual volume controls for each pickup and a push/pull master tone control that taps the humbuckers for sweet, single-coil inspired sounds.

The SE Hollowbody Standard Piezo features an all-mahogany body with hollow construction for a warm, resonant tone. Boasting 58/15 LT “S” pickups and an LR Baggs/PRS Piezo system, the SE Hollowbody Standard Piezo provides musicians with the versatility of wielding both acoustic and electric tones in one instrument. Additional appointments include a 22-fret wide fat neck, bone nut, and PRS adjustable Piezo stoptail bridge.

The instrument is designed with two discrete volume controls (magnetics and piezo) and output jacks (magnetics and mix/piezo). Players can plug into the “Mix/Piezo” jack and use the individual volume controls to blend the 58/15 “S” pickups with the piezo’s acoustic tones. Alternatively, players can plug into the jacks separately, so the guitar can run magnetic pickups into an amp and run the piezo through an acoustic amp or DI into the soundboard. When using the magnetic output jack in isolation, the piezo battery is bypassed completely, acting as a failsafe (in this scenario, the magnetic pickups still work even if the piezo battery has run out of juice). Original hardshell case included.

In 2018 Paul Reed Smith released John Mayer's Signature guitar, the Silver Sky. It was designed and manufactured in the Core Product category, and it immediately took the music world by storm. They set out to recreate the feeling of vintage instruments with updated hardware components more suited for today's player. Every inch of this classically inspired recreation is improved in design and function and the hardware has been redesigned with quality, ergonomics and functionality in mind as well. 

John wanted to move this great quality instrument forward and in the hands of more musicians while "not penalizing the guitar player for not having the core US model."

Please see John's impressions of the SE Silver Sky at this link:  https://bit.ly/3r8mRfp

The Silver Sky SE launch is in process in three amazing new colors; Overland Gray, Nylon Blue, and Summit Purple, a maple neck and fingerboard with a 25.5" scale length, 22 frets, and 635JM signature carve. A steel two point tremolo system and custom designed pickups ensure great intonation and tone every time.

Since 1951, the Fender Precision bass has made its mark in practically every genre of music imaginable.

The Fender Custom Shop 1959 Relic Precision Bass pays tribute to the landmark Precision Basses that put Fender on the map in the studios and stages, with accurate detailing including electronics and hardware - from the split humbucking pickup to the vintage tuning machines and bridge. The chrome bridge and pickup covers were included to further the authenticity of this Custom Shop build.

In 1959, Fender added the Rosewood fingerboard and then the Tortoise shell pickguard to the Precision Bass. After the Rosewood slab board was added to the production of these basses, Fender decided to use up the remaining gold-anodized aluminum pickguards before switching to the Tortoise Shell gards, waiting to be introduced. This very short period of time has become a highly collectable version of the Precision Bass, only lasting for a few months. This is the Custom Shop tribute to this highly collectable Precision Bass.

This beauty is an USA Custom Shop made in 2008 and played ever since. It has a real lacquer finish on it, chrome pickup and bridge covers as the original 1959 Precision had, and the vintage style bridge and tuning machines as well. The wear on this bass is relic'd wear produced in the factory Custom Shop facility by mimicking 70+ years of heavy gigging. This bass includes it's original vintage style hard shell plush lined case, owners manual and lacquer finish brochure.

In 1954, Leo Fender launched the Stratocaster and revolutionized guitar making and music the world over. This beautiful 2011 USA Stratocaster demonstrates that same care and love for fine instrument making over 70 years later. This Alder body in rare Honeyburst finish is bolted to a one piece Maple neck with Walnut skunk stripe and 9.5" radius on a Rosewood fretboard. Hardware and cosmetics include Fender branded Schaller tuners, 22 frets, 2-point Tremolo tailpiece, Micro-Tilt neck adjustment, 3-ply pickguard, 5 way pickup switch, and hardshell case.

While the TransAcoustic's electronics deserve acclaim, the guitar is a high-quality acoustic instrument in its own right. With a single strum you'll notice the detail and warmth of the guitar's A.R.E.-treated solid Engelmann Spruce top. Yamaha's A.R.E. technology artificially ages the wood, achieving the clarity of tone found on great vintage instruments. The LS-TA's back and sides are crafted from solid Rosewood, which imbues the instrument with powerful low and high frequencies. The S body style is a comfortable design, similar to popular folk and OM acoustics with the narrower waist adding a focused midrange to the guitar's acoustic voice. The guitar's calling card is its onboard reverb and chorus effects. What sets them apart from other instruments with onboard effects is that these don't require any external amplification. Engage the effects via the simple-to-use controls and you'll experience and acoustic experience like playing in a rich, ambient venue. And when it's time for the gig, you can access those same great tones plugged in through the guitar's System70 pickup system and rigid Yamaha bag.

This is an in-house hand made Custom Shop instrument. This Custom Shop bass is our tribute to the 1956 Precision Bass with an Ash body finished in Vintage Two Tone Sunburst and a Maple neck and fingerboard. This bass has a custom wound vintage style single coil  pickup creating that legendary early P-Bass vintage tone and a NOS vintage paper in oil capacitor from Ukraine in the tone circuit. With a very strong and resonant voice, this bass has that open P-Bass sound heard on stage and in the best recordings throughout the 60's, 70's and 80's! Sting has used his early single coil P-Bass throughout his career. The Vintage Sunburst light relic finish looks extremely classy over the broad grain of the wood and is accentuated with the early large style white pick guard.  Original chrome covers over the bridge and pickup makes this bass look like a real blast from the past. The '58 style 4 saddle bridge used on this tribute bass ensures correct intonation and playability.  This bass, #101 in our series so far, is a limited run and includes a hard shell case.
