Explore your creativity! Hot looking, hard-working, and tonally versatile -- the Patriot Instinct is your new favorite electric. The Patriot Instinct has a sexy arched-top single cutaway body with a Quilt Maple top, Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a Modern C neck profile for comfort without sacrifice.

But, Michael Kelly knows looks aren't everything -- the Patriot Instinct punches higher than its weight class with the Great 8 Electronics mod: Easily transition from full, warm, powerful humbucker tones to focused single-coil sounds at the pull of a knob. This can be done on both the bridge and the neck humbuckers for maximum flexibility.

Bringing the tone from Sunday morning straight through Saturday night, the Patriot Instinct will be the one you reach for again and again.

Great 8 Mod
The Great 8 electronics mod is one of our most demanded mods. With this mod we double the sonic spectrum of our two-humbucker instruments. You still have the full powered tone of each humbucker and the traditional settings to give you neck, bridge or both. With Great 8 we add two push-pull switches to the volume knobs, that when pulled up one coil of the humbucker is disengaged giving you a cleaner single coil tone. You can control each pickup separately, maximizing your options. What can you do with 8 sonic options?
