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.
Introducing our newest model, the TimeFlite GTX. This is a fresh take on a classic platform offering players an exciting pickup combination and impressive visuals. The TimeFlite GTX is forward looking yet comfortable in all the right ways. The TimeFlite GTX is made for tone.
The TimeFlite GTX has the specs to compete. The slim C shaped neck on this one features a 9.5” radius bound rosewood fingerboard and polished medium frets. A Porter Domino JM pickup at the bridge teams with a Porter vintage JM at the neck. We hook the pickups to an Emerson Custom 5 way harness for a variety of tones. A vintage style string through half bridge with compensated saddles, Gotoh staggered vintage tuners, and a Tusq XL nut deliver reliable performance. The finish is Lake Placid Blue nitrocellulose lacquer complimented by an anodized pickguard and distinctive Silver Sportsman racing Stripes. This TimeFlite has been Artifact Aged to resemble a well used instrument. It comes in a Deluxe G&G hardshell case.
TimeFlite recalls a legendary era when all you needed was your guitar, a cord, and a great amp. This is the real deal: authentic looks, feel, and tone.
