DJ Ashba

"Through his work as a solo artist and stints with Beautiful Creatures, Mötley Crüe, Sixx:A.M and Guns N’ Roses, DJ Ashba has forged a reputation as one of the hardest-rocking guitarists on the scene today. In addition to his incendiary riffs and artful songwriting, DJ’s unique style has helped to set him apart from a heated crowd. The DJ Ashba Signature Les Paul is a guitar that brings it all to the party for looks, playing feel, and utterly scorching tone. With unique graphics on a satin Charcoal Gray finish with black plastics and binding, sleek playability, DJ’s choice of hot Seymour Duncan pickups, and versatile wiring mods, this guitar is primed to get you seen and heard." Gibson Website

"Ashba's Leatherface Les Paul has 3-D molded designs and real sinew stitching built off of a goldtop Gibson Les Paul Classic. In addition to Ashba's pickup selector/kill switch mod, this guitar has a tone control removed to accommodate the skull artwork." Guns N' Roses 2011 Touring Gear Gallery

Last night I locked myself in my studio to start rehearsing for the Sixx:A.M. tour. After I finished the set list, I ended up playing damn near every song we've ever recorded! I could NOT put this guitar down. This guitar is a BEAST! Cant wait to get this thing on the road! :)

Early on in his career DJ played customized Ernie Ball Music Man Axis guitars. Saying they were preferable to Les Pauls because of their single volume short shaft configuration.
