In 2016, the TM-6 pioneered the use of a neck crafted from a single piece of roasted maple, a technique Shijie was among the first to implement. Today, the design has been redefined and improved to include carbon rods in the neck in our current TM4 and TM5 models. These guitars are amongst our most popular (and for good reason) They are a stage friendly weight and have a remarkable tone and versatility giving you convincing single coil and humbucker sounds on tap without you having to change guitar. Some of our dealers refer to these at the “Rockstars guitar” as they are the choice of many of our Shijie Artists.
