The Xotic story: from pedals to prestige guitars

Today, we’d like to introduce you to Xotic electric guitars: a brand that has won us over with the exceptional quality of its instruments.

Already well known for their top-of-the-range effects pedals, Xotic is a small company launched in 1998 in San Fernando Valley, Southern California, and today has enjoyed a great reputation in the cutthroat world of Electric guitar effects for over 20 years, quite an achievement!

In 2009, the Xotic brand became increasingly well known in the market and demand for the products became too great for him to continue working out of a small garage in the San Fernando Valley.

To make room for the future, a change was necessary and they moved to the current production offices in Van Nuys, California.

With this new headquarters, the company was able to take off and by the end of the year, Xotic released one of its best-selling pedals to date, the Xotic EP Booster.

RAW Vintage: the pickups and parts that make the difference

Available in our assortment for several years now, RAW Vintage spare parts and pickups have won us over with their quality. Inspired by the vintage guitars of the 1950s and 1960s, these pickups have been handcrafted with one thing in mind: warm vintage tone and the most faithful reproduction possible of your guitar’s grain.

Handcrafted for high-end sound

If there’s one thing guitarists don’t worry about, it’s the bridges and springs on their Stratocasters, and yet! If there’s one element that’s essential for vibration transfer, it’s these parts!

After analyzing steel from the 1950s down to the molecular level, Xotic developed a special formula reproducing the exact structure of the metal. Using the same manufacturing technique and adding nickel plating directly to the steel body, They were able to maintain a consistent vintage tone with each piece! Whether you want to improve the quality or replace old parts on your vintage guitar, RAW is THE solution, and of course, these parts and pickups are original on all Xotic guitars. A guarantee of quality that obviously convinced us.
