Rock N Roll Relics Signature Adam Slack Lightning in Union Jack Black and Silver

Andertons are pleased to offer this Adam Slack Signature Rock N Roll Relics Lightning; the Struts guitarist has taken everything that makes the Lightning a dazzling axe and cranked it up a notch. The striking combo of RNRR's lightning F-holes and a black & silver Union Jack finish is a guaranteed head-turner - and it doesn't sound bad either! A single Seymour Duncan 'Silencer' P90 in the bridge combined with Graph Tech hardware and tried-and-tested tonewoods ensures that this machine can really sing, scream, and sizzle. Set your tone to Strut!

Key Features

• Tried and Tested - Utilising the tried and tested wood combination of a semi-hollow Mahogany body with a Maple top, the RNRR Lightning produces an open and resonant tone with acoustic-like sustain and overtones. Its solid centre block ensures the core attack of the note is kept intact.
• The Right Ingredients - Premium tonewoods, Nitrocellulose Lacquer, Jescar frets, CTS pots & Paper and Oil caps... No stone is left unturned and no shortcuts are made in ensuring that every Rock N Roll Relics guitar is the best it possibly can be. Coupled with world-class build quality and some rock 'n' roll attitude, you can't go wrong.
• Classic Design - The Rock N Roll Relics Lightning sports a thinline double-cut semi-hollow body with unique lightning bolt-shaped sound holes. Thanks to its semi-hollow design this guitar offers unrivalled versatility with tones ranging from bluesy warmth warm blues to all-out rock riffage.

Secret Sauce

Utilising an arsenal of ‘secret tools’ every Rock N Roll Relics guitar receives just the right amount of ageing and relicing. The guitars look and feel authentic, like they have stories to tell and like they have been someone’s number one for the last 30 or so years. From gentle finish fading with tarnished hardware all the way to completely weather-checked and beat up there’s an option that’s right for everyone.

Rock N Roll Relics

Founded in 2005 by genuine Rock N Roll legend, Billy Rowe, Rock N Roll Relics blends Billy’s obsession with vintage ‘relic’d’ guitars, his love of premium boutique instruments and his passion for guitar building and maintenance. From humble beginnings in a make-shift workshop in a relative’s garage and a store on eBay, Billy grew RNRR to become one of the most prominent custom guitar workshops on the scene. Based in North Hollywood, Billy and his small team have built guitars for Billie Joe Armstrong, Glen Campbell and Bruce Kulick to name just a few. Everyone at Rock N Roll Relics is a guitarist, building what they love with a genuine passion for what they do.

Working With Billy & RNRR

“We spent hours with Billy and the RNRR team discussing the spec of these guitars, the colours, and the one-off custom designs to really capture the essence of what the brand is about. To say they are passionate about what they do is an understatement.”

“The design and spec choices we made on our Rock n’ Roll Relics widely vary. On one hand, we wanted no-nonsense rock machines – single pickups, authentic relic jobs, and classic colours, perfect for gigging musicians. On the other hand, we wanted spectacular custom designs, paint jobs you haven’t seen before, plucked for the wildest imagination for that player who wants a truly unique instrument. Although these are two very different choices, they are all undoubtedly the most rockstar guitars we’ve ever had at Andertons Music Co.” - Ben, Andertons Music Co. Guitar Team
