Red Electric Guitars

Confident, passionate, and strong, few colours evoke more powerful feelings than red. So, when you’re looking to empower your music, what better way to bring out your muse than with a stunning red electric guitar?

Over the years, some of the most iconic guitarists in rock have favoured red guitars. During his Cream years, Eric Clapton often played a red Gibson ES-335, and AC/DC’s Angus Young has also been a longtime member of the red Gibson club. Over in the Fender camp, there’s Hank Marvin and his Fiesta Red Stratocaster, and who can forget Eddie Van Halen’s visually striking Frankenstrat? While Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour will always be known for his Black Strat, he too has frequently opted for a red Stratocaster for notable live performances, including Live Aid and the band’s legendary 1990 set at Knebworth.

If you want to pay homage to these monsters of rock and pick up a red electric guitar of your own, you’re in luck.
