The Sky Guitar
I have the honour of making a signature series of Sky Guitars,
which are exclusivly available through DEAN USA
These amazing instruments were designed by Uli Jon Roth 30 years ago
and up until now have never been available commercially.
The revolutionary design of these guitars with its vastly extended fretboard
enabled the player to play in the highest registers of the violin range.
They are featuring the original MEGA-WING system by John Oram
with full onboard studio quality EQ and my new patented low impedance pickups,
fully switchable from vintage singlecoil to Paf type humbucking mode.
This unique innovation is probably the single most powerful
Guitar pickup system on the planet and it comes with
a handwired ultra low noise 18v powersupply.
Every Sky Guitar gets personally named, checked and approved by Uli himself.

SKY GUITAR WEBSITE & COMMUNITY
We are planning to launch an extended dedicated Sky Guitar website.
We want to devote a separate page to each and every authentic Sky Guitar ever built and would therefore also include the instrument you obtain. Each guitar has its own story to tell and there would a space for this. You could update it any time with a list of gigs you played, recordings that you made using the SG.
There will also be a Sky Guitar user forum - for members only - where you can exchange your experiences and where you can give tips to the other users. It would also be nice to have a picture of yourself with the guitars, or perhaps even music that you performed or recorded with the Sky Guitar. The website will be launched in the not-so-distant future, and we will send you an e-mail regarding this, should you be interested.
