X-Pression

-

 

The X-Pression is a masterfully crafted hybrid featuring a Strat-style body, 21 frets, wrap-around tailpiece bridge, and 25.5″ scale length. This is an instrument built to turn heads and turn up.

The X-Pression pairs a resonant Nootka cedar body with a torrefied rock maple neck, delivering a lightweight, responsive platform that’s as comfortable as it is expressive. The wraparound tailpiece bridge and staggered locking tuners keep tuning stability rock solid, night after night. The X-Pression is a true head-turner built to stand out. Every detail is dialed in with precision that optimizes feel. It’s every bit as easy to wear as it is to look at. This handcrafted guitar delivers the tone, comfort, and character to match.
