JMP GUITARS ORIGINALS
All of JMP Guitars Originals are one-of-a-kind built-to-order instruments. The following guitars are a small sample of our work From 1995 to 2020. Newer models and anniversary models will be added above.
MONGREL
The inspiration behind this guitar was to combine the best qualities of what we’ll call the “two most popular” guitar types—styles that have always been in competition. Packed with premium features, this instrument includes Sperzel Locking Tuners, Lace Hemi® Humbucker Pickups, a Wilkinson Tremolo, CTS Pots, a Switchcraft Toggle, and individual coil-tapping switches, among other standout elements. While we typically use push-pull pots for discreet coil-tapping, Josh wanted the switches to be front and center, so we opted for standard toggle switches to match his vision.You can hear this guitar on our youtube amp demo

TRIBUTE
You know that SRV guy? Yeah, he was pretty incredible. But we felt other companies’ tributes to the legend didn’t quite hit the mark—so we decided to build our own. This beauty features a left-handed Gotoh Fulcrum Tremolo on a stunning flamed maple top body, paired with Lace “Holy Grail” Series Pickups to nail that iconic ’50s “S” guitar tone. We also load it with CTS Pots, a Megaswitch, and Sperzel Locking Tuners for top-tier performance. Oh, and let’s not forget the stickers—because every tribute needs a little extra flair!
