The Shelton Electric Instruments SolarFlite is not for the timid. The reverse offset body shape is paired with tried and true appointments to make for a truly rock solid guitar. Designed to impress, the SolarFlite makes an eye catching statement!

This SolarFlite is ready to go. It has a fat, beefy neck with nicely polished medium frets and a 9.5 inch radius. A Porter Vintage T single coil at the bridge and a Porter P-90 deliver raunchy tone. We hook the pickups to an Emerson Custom 5 way harness for a variety of sounds. The body is swamp ash for nice snap and sustain. A Kluson string through bridge with compensated saddles, Gotoh staggered vintage tuners, and a Tusq XL nut mean dependable performance. The finish is an amazing Seafoam Green nitrocellulose lacquer and is set off by a Tortoise pickguard. This SolarFlite has been Artifact Aged to resemble a well loved instrument that has played its share of late night shows. It comes in a Deluxe G&G hardshell case.

“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.”
