In Jeff's own words: "Tone Ranger Guitars grew from my love of the West: the culture, the environment, the music, and the history of the western American deserts and forests. Lovingly hand-crafted in my one-man shop in LA with the finest components and pickups, Tone Ranger Guitars are made entirely from sustainable, local, urban trees from Los Angeles and her surrounding counties. These trees lined our city streets, shaded our parks, and grew in our backyards — now rescued by arborists such as Street Tree Revival and Angel City Lumber who repurpose these beautiful trees and give them a second life. You're a Tone Ranger now. Keep on truckin'."

The Lollar Gold Foil is Jason Lollar's take on the DeArmond-style Gold Foil pickups from the 1950s and 1960s — chimey, articulate, with a complex midrange character that sits between a single coil and a humbucker without sounding like either. In the figured walnut and redwood Double Barrel, the Gold Foils' natural brightness and mid complexity pair beautifully with the Cunningham Custom 35's Tweed channel.
