James Tyler USA Studio Elite HD HSS Roasted Birdseye Maple Neck & Fingeboard Alien Guano 7.65 lbs

STUDIO ELITE HD

This guitar is all about getting back to basics, which has made it one of our most popular models. A mid-boost preamp plus good selection of hardware, pickup and finish options allow customized simplicity that still has plenty of “kick”.

Add Neck & Bridge Button

The “Add Neck & Bridge” button on James Tyler Guitars allows players to engage both the neck and bridge pickups simultaneously, offering a unique tonal blend not typically available with standard pickup configurations. This feature enhances the guitar’s versatility, enabling a combination of the warmth from the neck pickup and the brightness of the bridge pickup for a rich, full-bodied sound.

Mid-Boost System: Definition & Functionality

The Mid-Boost System is an onboard active circuit designed to enhance midrange frequencies, providing increased warmth, sustain, and punch to the guitar’s tone. It is particularly useful for cutting through a mix, adding body to clean tones, and driving amplifiers harder for a more dynamic and expressive lead sound.
