Notes:
We are proud to be carrying Equitz Guitars!
Equitz Guitars are built right here in the hills of Tennessee, by the wonderfully talented Kevin Equitz (and his lovely wife Heather). I recently stumbled upon Kevin's work though a podcaster that I like a lot from the PNW (Shout out Blake at Tone Mob podcast); but I asked him in an Instagram reel what guitar he was playing, and he was like "They are in your back yard, dude."
I looked Kevin up and found out they are just 45 mins away in Spring Hill, and I immediately knew I had to get Equitz Guitars in my store. Luckily, they play and sound even better than they look (which is high praise because they look friggin' awesome). Each Equitz Guitar is individually curated, so every one is a little bit different. It gives his guitars a truly one-of-a-kind "objective of a side quest in a video game" quality.
A while back, Kevin and I were talking in the store and I said off handedly "a Harmony inspired one would be cool." Well, my wish was his command....and BOY, did he understand the assignment.
Here is some info from Kevin:
"
My designs are intended to feel familiar but still new; I’m trying to maintain a healthy balance of classic and modern themes in each one. All of my guitars are intended to be simple and approachable - trying to hit that mix of looking good, sounding good, and feeling good.
