The Monroe is a no frills tone machine - and none are needed when a guitar is this alive, great sounding, and beautiful looking.

Why We Love This

This Fiesta Red Monroe features a black limba body and neck, with neck through construction that makes upper fret access ridiculously easy, a rosewood fingerboard, chopped Tele bridge w/brass saddles, 6-on-a-side headstock, and a pair of Wolfetone pickups - Timberwolfe (bridge) and Marshallhead (neck).

In hand the Monroe feels sleek and fast, and a heck of a lot like a Gibson Firebird - the sustain is incredible. The Monroe actually balances quite a bit better, but that old-school, vintage Gibson soul is here in spades. It's stripped down, it's inspiring, it's rock n roll.

The mismatched Wolfetone humbucker set delivers rich, punchy midrange in the bridge position (class LP tones), fantastic lead tones that never get muddy in the neck position, and the middle position does a striking Firebird-like impersonation with musical, cutting trebles.
