Equitz Rayburn Baritone *PROTOTYPE* Electric Guitar w/ GB (2024 - White)

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). This is a super versatile guitar; that Kent Armstrong P-90 covers a lot of ground. I suspect this guitar would really shine in the studio, it is a really clean tracking guitar.

The neck on this one feels incredible. Slightly chunkier C shape profile. The headstock and stinger are both painted black to match; which to me gives this guitar a super mid-century modern feel. 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. 

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.
