Key Features

• Versatile Hand-Wound Pickups – The sonic range of the St. John Standard combines two classic sounds with their own unique character to give you a punchy, bright, and warm tonal variety.
• Unique Finish – The Charcoal Burst on this guitar
• Comfortable Neck Profile – Famously familiar, the “C” shape neck profile provides a great response that is comfortable and inviting to play for all players and playing styles, offering you the ability to move around the neck swiftly and effortlessly as it gradually gets thinner towards the body heel carve.
• Gotoh 510 Tuners – Gotoh tuners are highly sought after for their reputation for their tuning stability.
• PJD Custom Shop Pickups – These pickups are made at the PJD factory directly. You can expect harmonic complexity with pronounced highs, lows and a slight scoop on midrange frequencies!
• Belly Contour – Makes the guitar more ergonomic to play, fitting nicely towards the body.

The stunning offset PJD St. John Elite embodies all the hallmarks of a classic design with a clean modern finish. The PJD St. John Elite features a chambered swamp Ash body.  The neck is made from roasted Maple, with a custom neck profile based on a standard “C” shape. The St. John Elite is supplied with a hard case and PJD certificate of authenticity.
