The Contour Hot Rod is our take on the classic design of 1959-1962 with its ash body and rosewood board, but with a used a modded vide from its added bridge and neck humbuckers (with coil tap). We chose the parts we liked from each year and added a flatter radius, jumbo frets, our own US-made tremolo with Raw Vintage saddles and springs for a classic guitar with none of the issues found in the originals. The Hot Rod is not a one trick pony – it can cover all the bases from metal to classic rock, and do them all with ease.

RS Guitarworks is proud to announce the only authorized and endorsed guitar by Country music legend Marty Stuart and his band, the Fabulous Superlatives. RS Guitarworks got together with Marty, Cousin Kenny Vaughan and Chris Scruggs to create a series of instruments that meets Marty and the Fabulous Superlatives’ desire for classic feel, tone and build quality.
The RS Superlative guitar has a one piece maple neck with dimensions taken directly from Marty’s favorite Tele, ‘Clarence’ (the late Clarence White’s bender-modified 1954 Esquire). A lightweight pine body with a silver sparkle nitrocellulose finish makes the RS Guitarworks Superlative a picker’s dream. The RS Superlative MS is also equipped with a Custom B-Bender handmade by Gene Parsons, just like the one found in Marty's favorite 'Clarence'. Lindy Fralin custom-wound SuperlaTone pickups and world-renowned RS Guitarworks electronics round out this amazing guitar.
The RS Superlative guitars and basses were used extensively on Marty and the Fabulous Superlatives’ new album, Nashville, Volume 1: Tear The Woodpile Down (2012, Sugar Hill Records).
