NAMM 2023

Two Arrows, four Eclipses, a quartet of M Series models, and lone Viper and SN six-strings make up the 2023 lineup, which introduces striking new looks, hardware appointments and pickup options across the board

With the brand's first-ever roasted maple neck, a bound rosewood fretboard and newly designed floating vibrato tailpiece, the Surfliner Deluxe takes Guild's offset platform to even greater aesthetic and functional heights

The new launches are the world’s “first and only” cobalt flatwound strings

Said to be “the culmination of over 30 years of collaboration” between the two, the L4 models arrive with an array of pickup configurations – with a standout Steamroller limited-edition version also flashing a double-locking floating tremolo

After exclusively debuting the radical design as a seven-string at last year's show, Ernie Ball Music Man and the Animals As Leaders guitar hero have now repackaged the futuristic creation in a six-string format

The new John Taylor Signature model salutes Duran Duran’s breakthrough album

With its low price tag, re-amping functionality and TONEX SE thrown in, IK appears to have nailed the brief
