The Music Emporium

We’re thrilled to have a new build in the works from Ron Thorn, and it’s shaping up to be something truly exceptional. 

Constructed from korina with a Flying V-style deep tenon neck joint, this guitar leans into classic Gibson DNA while showcasing the level of detail and nuance we’ve come to expect from Ron’s work.

We have three currently on order in various pickup combinations. The base price is $7800 with the final price determined by the specs/options. Let us know if you'd like to reserve yours!

Few guitarists have shaped rock & roll quite like Mike Campbell. His signature rhythms and searing leads are at the core of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' unmistakable sound, with his trusted Fender guitars playing a key role in crafting some of the most iconic hooks in music history.

Billy Strings is one of the most electrifying guitarists of our time, and Martin’s tribute to his meteoric rise comes in two standout forms: the richly appointed D-28 Billy Strings and the more accessible D-X2E Signature Edition.

Our last batch sold out quickly, and we’re expecting only a handful more in 2025. If you’re eyeing one for your collection, get in touch to reserve yours now.

We’ve been fans of Divided by 13 since the early days—several of us at TME have toured and recorded with these beloved boutique amps for years.
