Shelton's Guitars

This is a prototype guitar we built last year. I wanted to mash up a couple popular styles and this was the result. We built 4 like this in various colors. 2 went to employees. These 2 remained. After spending time with these prototypes, we decided to develop our own body shape. These guitars will be the only ones built in this shape. We’re not going to build anymore like this!

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 FireArrow is a bold reverse offset like you’ve never seen before. The neck is our comfortable Tailored C and sports a 9.5” radius rosewood fingerboard with nicely detailed medium frets. Porter vintage wind JM pickups deliver awesome sound. We hook the pickups to an Emerson Custom 5 way harness for a variety of tones. A Mastery M1 bridge and MV vibrato mean trouble free performance while Gotoh staggered vintage tuners, and a Tusq XL nut make for rock solid tuning. The finish is Solar Orange Metallic nitrocellulose lacquer with Candy Apple Red Sportsman Stripes and is complimented by a Lucite pickguard. This FireArrow has been Artifact Aged to resemble a well used instrument. It comes in a Deluxe G&G hardshell case.

The FireArrow is a unique take mash up of classic ideas. There’s nothing else quite like it. BUY IT NOW and own this great guitar!

“From the moment I touched the instrument I liked it, but from the moment I played it, it was love over the top.”

“I love testing electric guitars for sustain and clarity when played acoustically. This passed all the tests, up, down and across the neck. But plug this in and real magic begins. The switch and the controls permit dialing in a wide range of tones with my little finger.”

“Most impressive is the touch sensitivity of the guitar. Great to play and great to play with. A thousand happinesses to you, like those you brought to me.”
