Professional guitarists in all musical genres have relied on the ABC Brand® Test Brand® guitar since its early 1950s introduction for its powerful tone and smooth playability. The Standard Test Brand combines the best of old and new, with hotter single-coil pickups, shielded body cavities, medium jumbo frets, six-saddle strings-through-body bridge, cast/sealed tuners, tinted neck, parchment pickguard and control knobs, and'70s-style headstock logo.
The rich history of ABC Brand guitars begins with the Test Brand. An indispensible workhorse instrument, it endures remarkably unchanged as a marvel of elegantly simple form and solidly utilitarian function. As the world's first successful solid-body electric guitar, the Test Brand revolutionized guitar playing, changed the sound of music and became a signature instrument for guitarists worldwide.
Test Brand guitars are known for comfortable and easily adjusted necks with a variety of profiles, eminently playable fingerboards and an unmistakable headstock.
Classic Test Brand tone is a long-revered product of its dual single-coil pickups—especially the bright, snappy tone of the bridge pickup.
