Guitar players are seekers. They are always looking for something elusive. Perhaps an instrument they owned long ago and long to have back in their arms. A guitar that inspires playing and causes time to melt away. A roadworthy companion that sounds and feels like an old friend.
Whatever it may be that you're seeking, K-Line Guitars believes it's within reach.
K-Line builds vintage-inspired solid body electric guitars that combine classic styling, boutique pickups, modern hardware and second-to-none nitrocellulose finishes that are sure to please vintage guitar enthusiasts and today's demanding modern players alike.
K-Line guitars are built using wood that is hand-selected for optimal tonal response and shaped to the specific application. K-Line has designed each neck and body to overcome the short comings of the vintage designs with regards to board widths and neck pocket design. Each neck is carefully tap tested with respect to each body, maximizing the tonal balance and resonance. Every neck features hand-rolled fingerboard edges, along with a thin silky nitrocellulose finish, providing a broken-in 40 year-old feel and look.
Every guitar is finished in a variety of historically-accurate classic guitar colors and topped off with nitrocellulose lacquer. Some K-Line guitars undergo a proprietary process to apply a light to moderate amount of aging to the finish. Others are given the Time KapsuleTM treatment, providing the appearance of a guitar that left the showroom 50 years ago and was stored in its case in a closet ever since. The Time KapsuleTM is not a modern new finish as it is a thin skin that will settle into the grain but have new, shiny hardware. K-Line does not do finishes that require a urethane undercoat, we like to allow the least amount of film thickness as possible. If a deep gloss look is what you are after, this is not the place!
Chris Kroenlein personally assembles and sets up each guitar to his specifications, and no guitar leaves the shop unless it passes Chris' meticulous quality control.
K-Line believes the feel of our instruments is what differentiates ours from other guitars you may find at even twice the cost. We spend countless hours making sure that each neck has a nice broken in feel with rolled edges, meticulous fret work, and a familiar, comfortable contour. Don't just take our word for it - see what K-Line players have to say about their instruments.
In 2010, K-Line Guitars launched the Spirit of 66 series - a line of vintage-inspired guitars that are the first K-Lines to feature our proprietary neck shape, unique headstock designs, custom-wound pickups and upgraded hardware as standard features. Take a cruise down the Mother Road and meet:
• The Springfield (double cutaway)
• The Truxton (single cutaway)
• The San Bernardino (offset w/ stoptail bridge)
• The Texola (offset with classic single coil configuration)
In 2012, K-Line introduced the KL Series, featuring set-neck construction, mahogany bodies and necks and a wraparound adjustable bridge. All KL Series guitars are finished in silky thin nitrocellulose lacquer and available in either single- or double-cutaway body styles. Learn more about the KL Series of set-neck guitars.
