Artist AT82 15th Anniversary Swirl Electric Guitar 

The above image is a mock-up that will be replaced with actual images as soon as possible.

We're turning 15! We've certainly come a long way from our humble beginnings producing a small range of electric guitars all those years ago! To celebrate, we're bringing you a range of pro-spec instruments at prices that defy belief - just as we've been doing for the last 15 years...

We're kicking off our 15th Anniversary Range with the inimitable Artist AT82! With a truly unique body shape, and an equally groovy pink and purple swirl finish, the Artist AT82 is certainly eye-catching... but it's the way it sounds that counts, and we're proud to say this one delivers in spades! Featuring an incredible set of hand-wound pickups courtesy of the Laohao workshop, the bridge humbucker on this one is an absolute ripper, delivering searing lead tones and crunchy rhythms in spades! Switching to the neck, we've loaded the AT82 with an awesome vintage-voiced lipstick single-coil, giving you warm, smooth rhythm tones with wide harmonic range - jangly highs, and a deep, earthy mid-range that responds wonderfully to transparent overdrives. 

Immediately comfortable to play, the AT82 features a C-shape quarter-sawn roasted maple neck topped with a 14" radius rosewood fretboard - the latter being a feature for which most brands will charge a hefty premium in 2024! If that wasn't enough, the AT82 also comes equipped with 21 stainless steel frets, ensuring a refret is many, many decades away, even if you're bending 13 gauge strings to your heart's content. 

With 1:19 ratio locking tuners, a bone nut, strap locks, and plenty more incredible features, the AT82 is a premium instrument, emblematic of the consistent quality we have been delivering since our first guitar rolled off the line all those years ago. Whether you've been with us since the beginning, or you've come in late, we can't thank you enough for supporting us in delivering quality instruments at an affordable price. Here's to another 15 years, and many more!
