The Springfield by K-Line Guitars is a double-cutaway guitar that is designed to work great for rock, country, and blues.  It’s a great electric guitar that many others are judged by.  It was done in a double-cutaway before that design caught on, and as one of the first, it’s now seen as a classic guitar that many electric players love.  It was designed by master builder Chris Kroenlein, who sought to improve the double-cutaway classic design.  He did this by changing the angle of the neck pocket to give the Springfield a better tone and more intonation.  He also made the tremolo system smoother to operate and added high quality electronics.  The result was a guitar that looks and sounds like a vintage instrument but plays so much better.

The Springfield uses swamp ash or select alder for the body.  The neck is done in a U shape with a heel truss rod adjust.  Different woods choices are available.  You can also customize the body with different woods if you like.  The fretboard has a ten inch radius and a rolled-edge.  The Springfield uses a Wilkinson vintage bridge and Gotoh SD-91 tuners.  For pickups, you can choose between Lollar Dirty Blonde or Klein K-Line Customs.  There are other options, of course, but they do cost extra.  The guitar is done in a nitrocellulose lacquer and comes in more than 20 different colors.  You can select no aging, light aging, or special order heaving aging.

The Truxton by K-Line guitars is a simple instrument, but it certainly doesn’t lack in sound.  This guitar is based on the single cutaway tele-style body design that has been around for decades, but K-Line puts their own unique little spin on it that turns the Truxton into a truly unique and fun guitar. 

The Truxton is a light weight guitar that uses top quality components and the best tonewoods available.  A select swamp ash or alder body is standard, although other woods are available.  The neck is done in a U shape and features a fretboard with a ten inch radius.  The Truxton uses Gotoh SD-91 tuners, a heavy K-line stamped plate bridge with three barrel compensated saddles (a hipshot hard-tail bridge is available on special models).  It features Lollar or Klein traditional single coil pickups, but again, other brands are available upon request, including P90, mini humbucker, or Firebird.  The guitar can be aged if you like, and there are a large variety of vintage colors available.

The Truxton comes in standard and special models.  The standard version with no customizations or additions retails for $2,250.

Here's a demo of the K-Line Truxton

K-Line’s series of relic guitars are known for many things.  They use wood that has been sourced for the best most resonant tonal response possible.  The necks are made to perfectly match the body so as to maximize the resonance and tone.  Despite this, however, K-Line does its best to keep the prices down on their relics, making sure that they are affordable for just about everyone.

One of the new series from K-Line is the Time Kapsule Series.  The necks are made just like those of every other K-Line series: they have hand contoured fingerboard edges so that it feels like they’ve got 40 years of wear on them.  These guitars are vintage tinted and hand rubbed so that they have a very smooth feeling.  They also use a hand rubbed nitro finish instead of poly sealers.  The hardware is brand new, however, and isn’t rusted.  The Time Kapsule Series is designed for those who love their relic guitars and want to really sound great.  The Time Kapsule guitars come in a number of different colors.

While K-Line makes a great number of standard guitars, they also make some amazing relic bass guitars as well.  The J-Style Bass Guitar is just one of their many different designs that are based on the early Jazz Bass guitars that were made and played during 1961 and 1962.  This outstanding relic comes with a custom case and is made using only high quality vintage parts by top K-Line craftsmen.  K-Line is known for its dedication to top notch instruments, and the J-Style basses are no exception.

The J-Style Bass relic features a rosewood or maple neck that is done in a C-shape.  It has 6150 frets, and the body is done in alder.  The hardware is done with standard parts, but the bridge is Gotoh vintage, and the tuners are Kluson reproductions.  The picguard is tortoise, and the pickups are Lollar J-bass.  It has aged concentric knobs and comes in an oly white color.  All of these parts and vintage pieces combine to create a look and style that very few vintage or relic bass guitars have.  You won’t want to pass up one of the K-Line J-Style bass guitars if you love relics or basses.  You can order a J-Style Bass Guitar directly from K-Line or from a number of other sites that sell relic guitars and basses.

There are some companies that have long been established in the relic guitar business, and then there’s K-Line Guitars, which is a fairly new relic guitar maker.  Established by Chris Kroenline in St. Louis, Missouri, K-Line Guitars has already proven itself as one of the up and coming relic guitar makers.  Their line of instruments is quite nice, and any relic fan is sure to find them just as good as the relics made by older companies.  The K-Line instruments give you a different type of guitar.  While there’s nothing wrong with, say, a Fender relic, it seems like many people play them.  By playing a K-Line, you’ll have an instrument that’s a bit different.
