Description

"I didn't want to make Telecasters or Stratocasters or Les Paul copies, I wanted to do my own thing. Because these are original shapes, I had the flexibility to do anything I wanted." -Saul Koll

We've said it before but it's worth repeating - one of the reasons we love the Super Cub model from Koll Guitar Co. is because it's the type of guitar that reminds us of why we picked up an electric guitar in the first place. Lightweight, resonant and lively, the Super Cub embodies what makes models like vintage Melody Makers so great. Take that vibe and put it into a superbly crafted guitar and you'll get where this guitar is coming from.

The medium C neck is really comfortable and will appeal to a wide range of players (it lives somewhere between a Gretsch Duo Jet and a Les Paul Special). Coupled with the impeccable fretwork, this Super Cub plays beautifully and feels fast and nimble. The Mastery Bridge/Trem works perfectly and really allows for some aggressive trem work for this style of bridge.

The awesome looking Curtis Novak GT-V's sound incredible - one part gold foil, one part Jazzmaster...they're both familiar and new at the same time. The tones we pulled from this guitar were muscular, full of chime, and excelled at both clean and overdriven tones. Fender, Vox, Marshall-style amps, it sounded amazing through every one. They can do lighter pick/finger-picking playing and can take a beating when you want to turn up the amp and crank out those jams. 

Players looking for a guitar that balances high-level build quality with the soul, spirit, and outright fun of the "student model" guitars, this is your guitar! Priced with hardshell case.
