How do you design an original classic? Take a look at our AES solid-body lineup; with their uniquely carved tops, trademark tone-enhancing tailpiece design, upgraded bridges, and brawny "C" profile necks, our new AES guitars have become the instruments of choice for today's generation of forward-thinking guitarists. The huge sonic capabilities of the AES solid-body guitars virtually define the radically changing landscape of modern rock guitar.

The flagship handcrafted AES920 features a thick, book-matched solid top of stunning quilted maple on an African mahogany back, a rosewood fingerboard on an African mahogany neck with abalone fret markers and a pair of Seymour Duncan '59 pickups.

The award-winning AES620 features a quilted maple top on a Mahogany back, a mahogany/maple neck with abalone fret markers, and a Duncan JB bridge pickup matched to a custom Alnico neck pickup.

Highlights of both guitars include beefy vintage-contour neck shapes and separate pickup volumes plus a master tone control. The through-body stringing coupled with Yamaha's signature tailpiece design insures proper string angle and tension across the custom bridge, a trademark of the AES series.
