With this model, James Tyler is aiming to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Studio Elite. The official birth year for the Studio Elite with Jim's headstock design was 1987. It was also the year that Jim went full-time building only and no more mods and repairs. So in 2022, it was 35 years old. 
So to celebrate, everything on the guitar screams: California! and the sounds are a throwback to those early Tylers which were all made of Mamywo (Jelutong) and had lead/rhythm circuits in them with midboost preamps. Also, to keep it as modern as possible too, the model features Stingray 500 pickups with the new canceling coil circuit.
