James Tyler Studio Elite HD

Featherweight! Only 7lbs 3oz!

A killer SE HD from Tyler Guitars!

Mid-Boost Preamp w/Bypass Button!

Pure joy! No other custom electric guitar is as comfortable to play!

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 artists worldwide. 

The Studio Elite 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 SSH pickup configuration and mid boost preamp give it an incredible range of tonal versatility. And that neck- The Tyler Guitars 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 (which I don’t personally- I just think you have to evaluate the Logo and Headstock separately). Of course this boutique electric guitar also has a Tyler trademark Shmear finish.

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.

One of the things you often hear about Tyler Guitars is the phrase, "Either you know, or you don't". I like to add "But you should". There is nothing like the feel and luxurious playing experience offered by a Tyler Guitar.
