This month, we’re looking at the electric guitars most likely to sell quickly. To get the figures, we applied our Reverb Demand Index, the same index used on our market recaps for pedals and effects.
In addition to the eight most in-demand electric guitars, we wanted to surface the most in-demand electric guitars from a few other popular brands. We also highlighted a few guitars with a higher order score not necessarily in top demand.
Electric Guitars Demand Index
Some key takeaways:
- The Fender Chris Shiflett Tele is the highest-ranked Fender Artist model.
- The Ibanez AF55TF Artcore is the hottest jazz-style guitar on the list and the highest-ranked Ibanez.
- PRS SE Series guitars are doing well with especially high marks for the Mark Holcomb signature model.
- Part of their newly launched Island Series, the Supro 2030TS Hampton is selling well. We’re keen to see if demand for the revitalized brand's guitars can keep pace with their amps.
