#iconicguitars #iconic #guitarIconic. Great Guitars Are Back!Iconic Guitars2024-07-18 | Dear Iconic Family,
We took a measure or two to get our house in order. We took the time to remind ourselves who we are and what we love to do.
You supported us unwaveringly. You continued to order more guitars. You are truly the best part of Iconic.
We are proud to be sharing with you that WE ARE BACK and building some of the best guitars we’ve ever built.
Thank you all very much for your patience and trust in what we do and we are extremely proud we have the opportunity to continue.
Great guitars are back and we can’t wait for you to play one!

I truly appreciate all of the support and encouragement that was shown for myself as well as the people who have been here at Iconic Guitars creating these amazing instruments. While it is still a very fresh and ongoing battle, the words of support have been greatly appreciated.
So, I wanted to have an opportunity to announce what was next for Iconic Guitars. That is still a plan that is in the incubation stage. Although, I have gained some clarity on one thing. I simply cannot see a way that makes financial sense to continue in California. The process of shutting down and vacating this Carlsbad facility, finding a new location and moving all of our equipment to a new the facility, getting it all set up and running once again is not insurmountable. However, there are many other mitigating factors that make it less than feasible. Rising costs of business, rising insurance premiums, inability to even have required insurance, regulations, taxes, etc. etc.
The next guitars produced by me and Iconic Guitars will be from Nashville, TN. I have had a house there for years and am looking forward to getting the next chapter started. There are still a lot of details to be worked out. I’m not sure of that timeline as of yet due to several factors.
Thank you for taking the time to watch this video and your continued support is greatly appreciated!INSANE Solana on sale now!Iconic Guitars2024-02-27 | We have some amazing deals on Secret Stash guitars right now!
