Product Description
Andertons are pleased to offer this Rock N Roll Relics Starfighter Custom, beatifully presented in a heavy aged Wine Red finish with black stinger. Featuring a Mahogany double-cutaway Jet inspired body with Maple top this Starfighter Custom has the classic mid-range thump, warm depths and sparking highs that are often found on many of the most desirable electric guitars of the ‘50s and ‘60s. Its lightweight body provides a resonant tone with plenty of harmonic sustain. The neck has been carved to a ’60s spec profile and features a bound Ebony fingerboard for an extra level of snappiness and attack.
Secret Sauce
Utilising an arsenal of ‘secret tools’ every Rock N Roll Relics guitar receives just the right amount of ageing and relicing. The guitars look and feel authentic, like they have stories to tell and like they have been someone’s number one for the last 30 or so years. From gentle finish fading with tarnished hardware all the way to completely weather-checked and beat up there’s an option that’s right for everyone.
RNRR Relic Buckers
Developed in conjunction with none other than Grover Jackson, the RNRR Relic Buckers offer the key tonal foundations of the world’s most desirable electric guitar pickup with just a little extra bark in its delivery. Utilising a '50s-inspired nickel-silver baseplate in combination with 42 AWG Red Polysol Copper pickup wires, these humbuckers produce the acclaimed open and dynamic Rock N Roll tone that’s found on some of the most desirable guitars; rich in harmonics and overtones with an orchestral-like sustain. Souped-up with powerful Alnico-5 magnets, these pickups go one louder, perfect for cutting through even the busiest mix.
Rock N Roll Relics
Founded in 2005 by genuine Rock N Roll legend, Billy Rowe, Rock N Roll Relics blends Billy’s obsession with vintage ‘relic’d’ guitars, his love of premium boutique instruments and his passion for hand-building. From humble beginnings in a make-shift workshop in a relative’s garage and a store on eBay, Billy grew RNRR to become one of the most prominent custom guitar workshops on the scene. Based in North Hollywood, Billy and his small team have built guitars for Billie Joe Armstrong, Glen Campbell and Bruce Kulick to name just a few. Everyone at Rock N Roll Relics is a guitarist, building what they love with a genuine passion for what they do.
