Slow Train Guitars specializes in solid body and semi-hollow body electric guitars that are sourced from Southern lumber and hand-crafted to accentuate the look and feel of the wood. Our focus is on woods native to the environs around Chattanooga, from Atlanta to Birmingham to Nashville. Slow Train Guitars delivers handmade electric guitars with a fresh take on colors and finishes. We use translucent stains and dyes that highlight the wood’s grain both visually and to the touch. An industrial lacquer clear coat provides a durable finish that maintains a natural look and feel. Our colors 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.
