🇺🇸 1776 Republic 🇺🇸

America’s 250th birthday deserved more than a T-shirt.

So we built a guitar.

The 1776 Republic features custom wood-burned artwork showcasing a fierce bald eagle with shield, stars, flag, and the timeless words E Pluribus Unum.

Loaded with a pair of Grover Jackson Habanero Tabasco single-coil pickups, a Kluson steel bridge with brass saddles, Kluson control plate, Kluson strap buttons, cloth-wired electronics, and custom half-dollar control k***s, the 1776 Republic delivers as much punch as it does patriotism.

Wood, steel, fire, and freedom.

Handmade and finished with a commemorative 250 neck plate, satin mahogany neck, and rosewood fingerboard right here in the U S of A.

1776 Republic
Built in America.
Played at full volume.

🍒🎸 Introducing EL Jefe Guitars Cherry Pie 🎸🍒

Sweet? Maybe.

But this one bites.

The Cherry Pie blends classic
attitude with semi-hollow resonance, wrapped in a stunning transparent cherry finish that lets the wood grain shine through. From the first chord, you’ll hear the difference—a lively, open voice with plenty of snap, twang, and sustain.

Whether you’re laying down country leads, blues riffs, classic rock rhythms, or Americana storytelling, Cherry Pie delivers the tone and feel that keeps you playing long after the crowd goes home.

🔥 Semi-Hollow Body
🔥 Transparent Cherry Finish
🔥 Pearloid Pickguard
🔥 Vintage-Inspired Hardware
🔥 Built for Players, Not Wall Hangers

Available now from EL Jefe Guitars.

🔥 Fireside Companion 🔥

Some guitars are made for stages.

Others are made for moments.

Happy Camper was built for crackling campfires, summer night singalongs, front porch sunsets, and cabins tucked deep in the woods. Featuring a solid spruce top, it delivers the warm, powerful acoustic tone that turns a few chords into a memory you’ll carry for years.

This is the one that rides shotgun on weekend getaways, leans against the cabin wall, and somehow ends up in every family photo.

Classic acoustic tone. Honest craftsmanship. A fireside companion for years to come.

The new EL Jefe “Mayan Warrior” has a roasted poplar body with deep engraved artwork, matte nitro finish, locking Klusons, and enough attitude to make most factory guitars feel boring.

No stickers. No printed top.
Real wood. Real carving. Real grain.

Honestly one of the coolest builds we’ve done in awhile
