James Tyler Guitars Studio Elite HD

Sea Dragon Shmear!

The SE HD is a Custom Boutique Electric Guitar

Celebrate 100 years of tone with Make’n Music and James Tyler Guitars! We are each celebrating 50 years in the industry, and happy to be working together to bring you some of the most incredible custom, boutique, electric guitars on the market. James Tyler guitars are well known for their unparalleled feel and tone. James’ keen insight into how things work, and what players want is the main reason Tyler Guitars are coveted by top session players and performing artists worldwide. This particular guitar is an absolutely BITCHIN new Studio Elite HD, and like all Tyler guitars, it’s a killer!

The Studio Elite HD is a full custom boutique electric guitar. On this one we requested a Rear Rout body with slanted HSS pickup configuration, and an iconic Tyler Shmear finish. Other details include a lightweight Alder body, Quartersawn Maple neck, Abalone dot inlays, and versatile wiring with a Midboost Preamp, Bypass Button and Neck+Bridge Button.

The Tyler SE embodies the essence of the Hot-Rodded California Super Strat. A true player’s guitar, it has a contoured neck heel with a deeper cutaway on the treble side for easier access to the upper frets. The electronics always offer an incredible range of tonal versatility. And that neck- The Tyler Guitar’s neck has a feel to die for. Not once have I ever had someone pick up a Studio Elite and say it wasn’t the most comfortable guitar they have ever played – No matter how much they disliked the headstock!

While Tyler guitars are built using state-of-the-art technology including computerized milling machines, laser machines, 3D modeling stations, and aerospace engineering to ensure the utmost quality and precision, James draws the line to make sure that it never takes precedence over “the human factor.” Technology remains a tool in the hands of expert luthiers, and never a human replacement. This determined balance of modern technology and old school tradition ensures every James Tyler guitar feels like an old friend when you play it for the first time. Pure joy! No other custom electric guitar is as comfortable to play!
