May 2009 - NEW GUITARS



Here are 2 new guitars from the Chillen Guitar Factory. The first is custom built for John Eisenhart. A friend gave him an old cigar box, I have to say it is by far the best looking, and BEST SOUNDING guitar from the factory.
The box is a solid wood South Pacific cigar box. Perfect size for a guitar. it was a bit nicked up, and the corner joints needed to be repaired, but that only adds to the character of the guitar.
This baby has 4 strings (E-B-G-D), 24 3/4" scale, a humbucker pickup, and 2 drilled sound holes. It sounds great unplugged, the solid wood resonates well. Of course with all Chillen Guitars, the pickup is pretty hot, so it has that dirty, greasy, distorted electric honky-tonk blues sound we all love. Look for John and his new axe this summer playing gigs around the Lake George/Saratoga area!

The second guitar is another solid wood production- The Chillen Teamo Gold. The Teamo box is a sturdy compact, thick wood box. Well built and very strong. What's really cool about this offering, the neck has 24 frets! This will allow the player to hit some seriously high notes without body getting in the way. This beast was built to be plugged in. Like all Chillen guitars, the humbucker pickup smokes! 4 strings, 24 3/4" scale length, fully fretted, vintage volume control knob. This baby is NOW SOLD!!!! Call or email for more information on getting a Chillen Guitar.
