As you'd imagine, we've played (and owned) a silly amount of guitars—vintage, boutique, high-end, quirky, and everything in between—but student models always seem to pull us back in. Harmony, Silvertone, Melody Makers...there’s just something about them. They’re unfussy, full of character, and unapologetically fun.
Of course, we also know the reality: they’re not always the best built, or the easiest to play. That’s where the Koll Super Cub comes in. It channels the spirit of those classic student models, but wraps it in a high-end, pro-level instrument.
The Super Cub isn’t just about looks (though it’s undeniably cool). It’s about feel, vibe, and personality—the kind you can’t fake. Lightweight, resonant, and responsive, with a thin body and a super comfy medium C neck carve that lands somewhere between a Duo Jet and a Les Paul Special.
Add Saul Koll’s flawless fretwork, a set of Lollar P90s (staple in the neck position for bonus points), Schroeder top-loader bridge w/T-style saddles, and you've got one hell of a cool guitar that plays fast, feels alive, and just makes you want to keep playing for hours.
