Description
The Black Bobbin Phantone takes inspiration from the rich history of instrument manufacturing in Chicago during the 1950s and 1960s. The guitars and basses produced during that era left a lasting impression on the culture and were used on some of the most fundamental music of that time. Drawing influence from some of our favorite mid-century guitars, the Phantone design is centered around our exclusive Lollar JM pickups and an offset-waist body for unmatched tone and comfort. Equipped with Mastery Bridge hardware, the Phantone plays smooth and effortlessly. With the legacy of Harmony and Kay instrument manufacturing nearly forgotten by the people of Chicago, we are introducing the Phantone to help honor and celebrate the deeply rooted connection between electric guitar and this city. Just a few miles from Black Bobbin, at the end of an elevated pedestrian pathway, sits one of many long-gone Harmony factory sites—completely devoid of any acknowledgment of what once stood in its place. The Black Bobbin Phantone is made in Chicago continuing the storied heritage of guitar making in this city. After many years of exploring vintage and new instruments to discover what ultimately inspires us, this collaboration is the culmination—and we hope that the Phantone will inspire you as much as it does for us. Built in partnership with Lockhorn Instruments.
