BASSISTS!
For those about to bass! This one is for you. Again, we skipped the boring unboxing part and went straight to the “uncasing” part in this video of the latest bass to arrive in our Denver shop - an absolute MONSTER of an Jetstream 4-string multiscale with a swamp ash body, wenge-maple neck and a Richlite board. Sonically it’s loaded up with a pair of Big Blade soapbars and an on-board Tone Capsule. It’s available now on our website (sinisterhandguitars.com) or check it out in person at the SHG shop (5140 E29th Ave., Denver).
And as always - if you’d rather get an Aviator (guitar or bass) with your own touches and your own dialed-in specs we’d love to work with you on a 100% original YOU-spec completely custom Aviator Guitars riff-generator! Just hit us up.

OK, so we skipped the boring unboxing part and went straight to the “uncasing” part in this video of the latest arrival to our Denver shop - a badass of an Guardian 7-string with a swamp ash body, wenge-maple neck and a Richlite board. Plus it’s jam-packed with a set of Lundgren M7 humbuckers for your most punishing riffs and screaming leads. It’s available now on our website (sinisterhandguitars.com) or check it out in person at the SHG shop (5140 E29th Ave., Denver).

This Bass is RAD AF so F-yeah we’re reposting!
・・・
Last week we landed our first bass from our friends at Alpher Instruments and Holy Guacamole! is it a GNARLY one! It’s a 34-inch scale Mako Classic that the Alpher guys wickedly set on fire to give it that special Alpher Callida finish. No stains or paint on this one at all - just the natural colors and texture of the burned wood finished with some oil and wax. Freakin’ phenomena! It also packs Hipshot hardware, a roasted maple neck and roasted flame maple fingerboard with Richlite block inlays, and a pair of Fralin 70’s wind J pickups. Check it out in our Denver shop or online at sinisterhandguitars.com!

Bummer if you missed out on those righteous ‘71 Trellas in the SHG-exclusive Black Sugar Sparkle color. They went FAST! And on top of it there’s been a bit of a run on Sullies here over the last week. But don’t sweat it. We still have a handful available - including the Rad Red Raven baritone and the not-to-be-missed super-DOPE 2025 NAMM Special Stardust. Plus new stuff in the works! Hit us up with any questions or if you’re just sitting there jonesing for a Sully of your very own!

Make no mistake - we are Sinister AF. And we are also human beings. We see what’s happening in Minneapolis and so many other places and this s**t is 937% messed up. So even though it will hurt us as a small business it’s a small sacrifice to make to stand with Minneapolis and our neighbors - not to mention the greater community of real humans - and take part in the nationwide shutdown on Friday, Jan 30th.
