The 80's are Back! Badlands Custom Guitars Have Arrived!

TRUE-TO-THE-‘80s DETAILS
The sound, style and design of ‘80s hard rock guitars is undergoing a resurgence. Many of the biggest and best names in guitar manufacturing are looking back to sights and sounds of the Sunset Strip as catalysts for reissues and re-imaginings of their original designs.
Badlands Guitar Company goes one step further, using bespoke, custom shop-style production to get the GX-1 as era-correct as possible. No compromises. No shortcuts. All attitude. Just like the scene that inspired it.

PRODUCTION RUN
Unique custom graphic looks great on stage and in the studio, just like the best ‘80s hard rock guitars do.
Recognizable silhouette combines a classic “Super-S” body with aggressive, angular headstock details.
High-performance Gotoh GE1996T locking tremolo or Gotoh 510FX-6 hardtail
Custom-spec’d BGC M88 humbuckers, only available through Badlands Guitar Company, are custom-voiced to deliver the cutting sound and extreme performance needed for everything from power ballads, tough rhythms and screaming solos.
MORE THAN A GUITAR...
AN EXPERIENCE
Included with each limited Badlands Guitar Company GX-1 is a Sunset Swag Pack to round out the total BGC experience. Each item is uniquely connected to the GX-1 and the Badlands Guitar Company philosophy of honoring the influential sounds, artists, and gear of those halcyon Sunset Strip days.
the sound of the 80's
The BGC M88 humbucking pickup set takes its design cues from era-specific OEM and aftermarket designs that helped shape the ‘80s hard rock sound. A bold-but-balanced wind and a ceramic bar magnet delivers enough “push” for hot leads and crunchy rhythms but is equally at home delivering clear, articulate clean tones. While they'll sound phenomenal in any guitar, they are truly a ticket to the '80s Sunset Strip when paired with the GX-1. BGC M88s can be purchased only as a matching set if you want to sprinkle a little bit of magic on an axe already in your arsenal.

That’s awesome!! 🤘🏽🎸

[@raymondbarreras8153]

Yeah! I got mine just after midnight on Saturday morning. Then I checked Sunday & found it was over. Welcome brother. I NEVER spent over $700 on a guitar. However, this is like a Lamborghini to me! Rock On

Very knowledgeable and educational promo. Hope the company thanks you in some way!

[@AQMusic10]

Thanks. A couple of them are good friends of mine, and they are fellow RUclipsrs. They have basically followed their dream by creating their own guitar and I want to support them in anyway I can.

[@classicsongsplayedontrumpe7951]

Heh. I know the feeling. Control layout big pet peeve, and the only ones for me are Regular Fender Stat, Ibanez RG placement and Shechters placement for the SS.
Which i actually like the most, it's perfect and I don't even think if ordered a custom and tried to specify where my controls exactly be that i woulda got it this perfect. So it only took like 30 some years. If i bought one of these, and it is cool. I'd mod the hell out of it, which still makes it 80's style because that's what we did anyway, but I'd swap the toggle with the volume. I don't mind those toggles I like the MII style look and it's still functional, but i way prefer a blade 5 way at the perfect angle and my volume within perfect pinky reach.
