Slow Train Guitars specializes in skillfully handcrafted electric instruments that combine features of solid body and semi-hollow body guitars. While paying homage to the past, our unique design presses into the future, seeking to innovate while avoiding excess. Our aesthetic vision is one of elegant simplicity. The goal is to put your hands in touch with the wood the instrument is made of, not with lots of plastic or thick finish.

We use domestic species of lumber, and the wood is treated in a way that accentuates its look and feel. Our colors are tribute to the region, as they are named for stops along the rail lines that once connected Chattanooga with Atlanta and Nashville and beyond: Bell Buckle, Coalmont, Estill Springs, Calhoun, Chickamauga, Shellmound, and Wartrace. From our hands to yours, the Southern forests resonate under the fingers of those who play soulful music of any sort.
