Guitar Noize. Adrian Vandenberg Appearing at NAMM for Aristides Instruments. Submitted by Jason on Fri, 01/07/2011 - 06:21. Aristides Instruments will be showing off their unique electric and bass guitars at Winter NAMM 2011 - and to help them they'll have guitar legend and Aristides endorser Adrian Vandenberg at their booth on Friday and Saturday. Pictured above: The Aluminum Aristides OIO looks different, but produces exactly the same great sound as the black model.

Aristides uses advanced spraying techniques to spray fine aluminum particles on the guitar′s body; which accounts for its striking appearance. It is fitted with Seymour Duncan pick-ups, and the humbucker pickup can also be switched to a single coil, and the five-way selector switch offers an massive range of tonal options. Up to now these guitars have only been available online and in shops in The Netherlands, Germany and Japan. Their first dealers in Belgium, the UK, Canada and the USA will be announced at the NAMM -- France, Italy and Australia will soon follow. Home | Aristides. New Voyage-Air Guitars at the NAMM Show.

NAMM 2011 PRESS RELEASE: Like its parent company Gibson, Epiphone is known for several classic designs, guitars that established themselves as iconic in the 1950s and '60s. But the company has continued to grow steadily ever since coming into the Gibson fold in 1957, and many new designs of the late 20th and early 21st century have earned a status as 'modern classics' right alongside the vintage models from the company's golden years.

The Nighthawk is certainly one of these. Introduced by Gibson in 1993, it instantly became a favourite with blues and rock guitarists who wanted a powerful single-cutaway set-neck design with a few contemporary twists to offer the versatility demanded by modern musical styles. The Epiphone Nighthawk Custom Reissue celebrates the most exotic rendition of the Nighthawk line, with a custom look and a deep features set that make it as elegant a showpiece as it is a stellar performer.

NAMM 2011: Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar and Jazzmaster | Total Guitar Magazine. Squier has announced the addition of two new guitars to its Vintage Modified range – the Jaguar HH and the Jazzmaster. Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar HH First up, the Jaguar HH offers dual humbucking Duncan Designed Zebra pickups, two 62 Jazz Bass 'stacked' volume and tone controls (meaning the knobs are placed on top of each other, concentrically) and vintage-style tuners. In contrast to the metal-clad, switch-heavy design of the traditional Fender Jaguar, the more affordable model will feature a simpler three-position toggle switch, allowing for the selection of pickups at the neck, bridge or both together. The Vintage Modified Jaguar HH will be available in Squier's 3-Color Sunburst and Fiesta Red finishes.

Squier Vintage Modified Jazzmaster The second offering from Squier will be the Vintage Modified Jazzmaster. Both guitars look set to retail at the very-tempting price point of £200 to 300 (that price from cursory online research), although Squier has yet to announce an official RRP.
