NAMM 2026 Guitars

Here are the guitars I’m displaying at the 2026 NAMM show in Anaheim, California. Generally speaking, I try to display as wide of a variety of what I do in order to have a little something for everyone. Not this time. The guitars displayed at this year’s NAMM show (including the art installation not listed here) is my declaration of me; what I like, what makes me happy, and who I am. These instruments can be considered love letters, realization of things I’ve waited decades to do, moments of inspiration, and double birds to those who try to keep me down.

2026 Concorde® - Swatch - SOLD

No, it’s not the one that was infamously stolen at NAMM 2025. This Concorde makes its defiant arrival at NAMM 2026. At this time, I have no plans of offering this paint job again.

2026 Elita - A-Team Vibes

Just like the Swatch graphic on the Concorde, the idea for this finish was something I’ve wanted to do since 2003, and I couldn’t think of a better way to commemorate the model’s official addition to our US Custom Series. A mix of BlackSugar and None More Black divided by the famous red stripe and a matching red logo, we think B.A. Baracus would approve.

This guitar will be available from our pals at Island Music - hit them up and reserve it!

2026 Astro® Carved Top - White Tiger + Titanic Pearl

AVAILABLE AT INSTERSTELLAR GUITARS

Let me get this out of the way, this Astro rules. This is the second Astro to feature a super comfy and futuristic fixed bridge, the Sophia 3:44 hardtail. So far, all of the Astros built had Floyds, so I wanted to do something special for the Astro fans that wanted a non-tremolo option. I think we succeeded. This Astro has some really unique specs, and it’s quite lovely to play. What’s up with the Titanic Pearl? Well, I happened across some blue/purple pearl that happened to be mixed with coal harvested from the wreck of the Titanic during a recovery expedition in 1994, and I thought it’d be super rad to not only shoot it over the finish (and logo), but also use it for the inlay!

2026 Comet

While not an official model (and it won’t be), Comets have a way of coming around again. Some may recall I made one for NAMM 2019, and with Ace’s passing in October of 2025, I wanted to thank him in my own way.
