Kauer Guitars

collapse expand iconDescription

The Starliner Express from Kauer Guitars is reminiscent of some of the legendary rock and roll guitars to come out of the golden era of Kalamazoo-built instruments. A simple slab body of high-quality Spanish mahogany with a thin-skin finish for warmth and resonance is wed to a matching Spanish mahogany neck with a 22-fret wenge fingerboard for a classic pure tonewood experience. Kauer spec'd Wolfetone humbuckers bring the attitude. The Starliner Express is about as pure a statement of the rock guitar as you could hope to play, hand-built in Northern California. Includes deluxe Mono Vertigo gig bag.
