About Us
Badlands Guitar Company® made its debut in January 2023 as a passion-driven project. Our goal is to provide high-quality, true-to-era correct 80’s style guitars that are accessible to a wide variety of guitarists.
Drawing from our extensive knowledge of the designs, features, and specifications that define the typical electric guitar of the '80s, we aim to create versatile, responsive, and sometimes rowdy, yet refined instruments that meet the demands of '80s hard rock music. The birth of the Badlands Guitar Company® serves as both a tribute to the spirit and vibe of the '80s Sunset Strip and a commitment to meeting the standards of players who seek the best in quality and value.
All BGC guitars are meticulously crafted in our California, USA custom shop factory, with a focus on small limited production runs, ensuring that each guitar becomes an instant collectible. The 'custom graphic' series are all hand-painted, and the 'custom color' series are carefully selected. Every detail of the BGC lineup, from the tip of the headstock to the lower strap button, receives the same level of attention to detail and quality, guaranteeing you the finest instrument money can buy. Each BGC guitar also features our in-house, USA-made, handwound guitar pickups, bringing you closer to an authentic '80s tone and experience.
We want to express our gratitude for your interest in Badlands Guitar Company®. We take pride in bringing our passion to the guitar market and sincerely thank each and every one of our customers who have played a role in making our dreams come true!
