James Tyler Burning Water Studio Elite 2014
Either you know or you don’t
James Tyler™
On a scale of guitar goodness it goes something like this: uninteresting ones, good ones, great ones and then Tylers. Tyler guitars represent the absolute pinnacle of instrument making artistry. Starting with impeccable satin finish, known as Burning Water (yellow-gray pattern over a red background) which feels like quality shirt from Milan. The other thing you notice is the neck: quite chunky but still amazingly agile and easy to play. The fretboard is slightly scalloped, but only at the edges. Compound radius gives you perfect tuning in every position. And then goes the hardware of top quality - Tyler pickups, Tyler bridge, Hipshot tuners, Tyler pickups. Nothing short of world-class.
When you play it you feel like riding a wild mustang: if you approach it with attitude and take control over it - you will have the best ride of your life. It's a massive sounding guitar with huge range of usable tones, at home or on stage you are the top of your game.
