Check us out on Marlboro.com, if you guys have some time! They're doing a month long running feature on our guitars. New content added every week. Just go to "menu" after logging in, then go to "Flavor Makers."
Our newest build, and first bass, in aged red sparkle lacquer! Nordstrand noise cancelling pickups, compound radius fretboard, real aged clay dots, tall narrow frets and swamp ash body. We'll be doing this same color in a Chopper T and Chopper J on our next run.
Here's a new color we tried out for our latest El Machete build. It's based off the old Danelectro Copper color which I always loved, but in aged nitro. Anyway, this one has our custom milled Luxxtone steel hardtail bridge and bent steel saddle, Motor City Angel Dust pickup and Bourns 95...
Been busy getting guitars and basses ready for NAMM time, but just wanted to post a few of the latest builds. These are all special order El Machete's. Some new models will be available very soon. New Luxxtone Guitars website will be done very soon too. Looking forward to it.....it's about time!
So here's the Luxxtone video that Premier Guitar shot at the 2011 LA Amp Show. Just a rundown of the guitar line, being played through all the killer Friedman Amps.
PS: (I'm no Pete Thorn, just playing some big chords so you can hear the amps!)...
Here's a few Chopper T's we just finished up for the Amp Show. Lots of bells and whistles on these. Both have out custom fabricated electrosocket style jack and fullerton strap buttons. Silver tinned teflon wire, Bourns pots and Cornell Dubilier caps.
The white one features a custom...
Just wanted to remind everyone that the LA Amp Show is this coming weekend. It's very cool, and you can check out tons of gear just going from room to room. We'll have about 10 guitars in the Friedman and Cameron Amp rooms for everyone to play, pretty much all the guitars you've seen posted...
Here 'ya go Brad! Textured swamp ash body, aged Motor City Black Irons, Brass Trem, block and hardware, Gotoh locking HAP tuners, compound 10-14 radius quartersawn neck, jumbo frets, raw vintage springs, custom brass luxxtone jack socket.
Here's a quick pic of the latest Luxxtone build for Dave Friedman. Aged black nitro finish, jumbo 6100 frets, 10-14 compound radius board, quartersawn aged maple one piece neck, locking Gotoh HAP vintage tuners, aged Motor City Detroiter set, and will have a hard tail bridge.
Quick little update, haven't posted in a while. Been super busy in the shop building 7 new guitars and a bass, and on top of that, our shop is moving! Only one street over to a bigger place, but moving still is a pain! We needed to make room for the new machines, new benches and wood storage...
Website is in the works, sometime in the summer. We're still building up stock to be able to have photos of all the models on the site. I think the site will be more simple, no configurator or anything like that......way too much involved in that! But it's a cool idea. We're currently...
Some of you guys may be interested in this....so I may as well put it up. It's just some photos I was taking as I was working on Brad's guitar he gave me to refret for him. This guitar is KILLER, looks and sounds awesome....now it will play like it should.
Pulling the frets out. Had to oil...
Here's Prototype #4 built for Tone Merchants. Just a couple pictures I took with my phone before delivering. Olympic White over sunburst nitro, compound radius fretboard, real clay dots, Motor City pickups.
