Description
The 2014 James Tyler Special Edition Studio Elite Signature is an instrument designed for the modern musician seeking absolute precision, comfort, and an extremely wide tonal range without compromise. The swamp ash body with a See Thru White finish reveals the wood grain, lending the instrument an elegant yet profoundly functional aesthetic, typical of James Tyler’s building philosophy.
The quarter-sawn maple neck, paired with a quarter-sawn maple fingerboard, ensures stability, instant response, and an extremely solid feel under the fingers. The 9.5″–12″ compound radius accompanies the player naturally, providing comfortable chording and precise playing during fast passages and solos. The SSS configuration with proprietary JT pickups offers an articulated, dynamic, and transparent sound: defined and bright at the neck, balanced in the middle, and more assertive and present at the bridge, while maintaining great control and musicality.
The three-saddle Glendale bridge, Hipshot locking tuners, and chrome hardware complete an instrument designed to be reliable on stage and flawless in the studio. Weighing in at just 3.06kg, this Studio Elite Signature is a professional guitar in every way, capable of adapting to any musical context with personality, precision and a well-defined sonic identity.
