The Apollo takes a classic style and elevates it to another level. Our best selling design features the highest quality woods and components, endowing it with excellent sustain characteristics, sublime tone and playability by the bucket load. With an almost bewildering array of build options available, versatility becomes the Apollo’s middle name and whether you play rock, blues, country or indie, there’s an Apollo with your name on it.
The chambered body imparts the Apollo electric guitar with a full tonal character, lending itself well to a wide variety of musical styles, whilst the 3 bridge options, stainless steel frets and use of a Graphtech® nut all combine to produce an instrument that plays so effortlessly, it feels part of you.
