It goes back to 1975 and the installation of a DiMarzio Super Distortion pickup with a coil split in an Ibanez Artist which is still rockin' today! In pursuit of better TONE, the simplicity of a few potentiometers, capacitor or two, selector switch and of course, pickups to change those wood/string vibrations into electrical impulses has changed quite a bit. Today active electronics including 3 band parametric EQs, active tone circuits and acoustic premaps/piezo have given both the player and builder new tools for their sonic arsenal. 

Whether a new build or an upgrade to an existing instrument, you have the ability to create a signature tone. You have the chops but your tone is what will separate you from all the other players.

GUITAR FUEL was born out of the need to get the latest "tone enhancement products" into the hands of the working musician, hobbyist and custom builder. No longer are you limited to the "name brands" that add in advertising, lots of overhead and a good dose of profit to their price. At GUITAR FUEL we had a better idea!

Work with the same manufacturers building for those "names brands" in order to offer products that are cutting edge and of high quality but affordable. We depend on word-of-mouth, forums, blogs, etc. for advertising so without a brick & mortar store, it keeps our overhead to a minimum. We pass these savings directly to our customers so the working musician can afford to upgrade their TONE or the custom builder add "bells & whistles" to their builds and keep the price competitive.

      

Let us help you turn your existing guitar or new build into a fire breathing TONE MONSTER! Of course if you're looking to capture the pure acoustic heaven from some beautiful tone woods, we have 'ya covered there too!



We have partnered with South Korean manufacturer SHC-MUSIC to offer high quality tone enhancement products at musician friendly prices. Through a unique partnership, we have been able to design and manufacture products under our TONE MONSTER name. You can only purchase our products direct. We do not wholesale or place our products in chain music stores. We prefer to serve our customers directly maximizing the customer experience. Our motto is simple....we want long term customers not just one time sales!

We are a family run company with roots in all things guitar so who better to serve your TONE needs? As performers, builders and collectors we suffer from an exceptionally bad case of GUITAR ACQUISITION SYNDROME!  Our commitment to customer service sets us apart from the big internet retailers. You'll note it time and again in our customer's generous feedback. We're not looking for a one time customer but long term relationships as we help you build your dream instruments.



We use eBay as our "store" with a link at the top of each page (RED STORE BUTTON). However, we also work directly with our customers on special orders which is the bulk of our business. We also offer "builder discounts" (minimums apply), quantity discounts, invoice via PayPal and ship using USPS domestic and international services.
