Crafted in the USA, Shelton Electric Instruments are a tribute to the craftsmanship of iconic vintage guitars. Truly premium instruments, these guitars display bold styling and careful attention to the things that matter most to guitar players. Not another clone brand, Shelton Electric Instruments offer a look, feel, and tone you just can’t get from other guitars.
The Shelton Electric Instruments SkyFlite is made for those that aspire to greatness. A perfect blend of familiar feel and innovative features. Because the top is never high enough, this is SkyFlite.
This is a SkyFlite made to rock. Sporting a big, fat maple neck with a 9.5 inch radius and 21 medium frets, this one plays great. A Porter Classic Humbucker teams with Porter Vintage wind 1950s pickups for a range of tones from scream to mean. The pickups are hooked to a custom Emerson harness that offers traditional 5 way switching along with versatile series blend tones. A vintage style vibrato, Gotoh staggered vintage tuners, and a Tusq XL nut deliver reliable performance. The finish is classic black nitrocellulose lacquer and is complimented by an anodized pickguard. This SkyFlite has been Artifact Aged to resemble a well used instrument. It comes in a Deluxe G&G hardshell case.
The SkyFlite is as comfortable as it good looking. You’ll feel right at home as soon as you start to play it.
