DESCRIPTION
2024 NEW James Tyler Dann Huff Original Classic Floyd Rose 3 Tone Sunburst 7.65 LBS
We’re excited to introduce a truly special guitar, one that represents the culmination of craftsmanship, sound, and history. This guitar will be the ONLY Tyler guitar to feature this specific set of specs, pickups, control layout, pots, and switches—never to be repeated on any other model. We’ve designed it to honor the legacy of Jim Tyler, from his beginnings as a top guitar repairman and mod expert to the establishment of James Tyler Guitars. This guitar is for the true throwback customer who appreciates the romance of both its sound and its look.
The guitar is inspired by Dann Huff’s original 1964 modified Stratocaster, a pivotal instrument that helped shape his sound and career. For those of you who have been following the history of this guitar, you know the significance of its modifications, from the Floyd Rose installation to the Demeter preamp, and the parallel-wired pickups that became a hallmark of its tone.
We’ve recreated this guitar, paying homage to its past while recognizing it is not meant to define the future of Tyler guitars. Instead, it’s a limited edition designed to resonate with those who want to own a piece of that history. This model is all about capturing the essence of the 1980s Tyler sound, just like Dann’s, and won’t include the modern Tyler updates.
Key Features and Quirks:
- 22 frets to keep it true to its roots but still a classic Tyler.
- 250k tone pot for that brighter sound, just like Dann’s ‘64 Strat.
- Neck and middle hot stack pickups that will sit lower than typical Tyler guitars, exactly like the original.
- Duncan embossed pickup covers, custom-made just for this guitar and never to be used on another Tyler model.
- Series/parallel switches—true to Dann’s guitar, no split ever, and series in the down position.
- Alder body with a thin ‘59 Tyler-shaped neck, a perfect balance between the original ‘64 feel and Dann’s preferences.
- Floyd Rose tremolo for that authentic 80s sound, with an optional Wilkinson VS100 and Hipshot Locking Tuners for those who want an alternative.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime guitar for those who want to immerse themselves in the sound of the past, with all the quirks that made Dann Huff’s guitar so iconic. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. We’re here to make sure this guitar becomes as legendary for you as it has been for Dann.
