Bold Looks with High-Performance Playability - The Badlands GX1 Holoflash HS Tremolo Electric Guitar in Holoflash Pink

One day, back in the mid-1980’s, George Felise and Stuart Spector, two well-renowned figures in the guitar building industry were shooting the breeze in the spray room of a guitar factory. Spector whipped out a credit card, pointed to the holographic security label, and asked Felise if he thought it was possible to apply something like that to a guitar body. Felise liked the idea and subsequently acquired a couple of rolls of the foil from a friend who worked in a label manufacturing plant. After several rounds of trial and error, a method to apply the finicky material was perfected and a small run of instruments was built, ultimately making their debut at the 1987 NAMM show. These new guitars with the “holoflash” finish blew the doors off the convention and quickly caught the limelight with latter-day ‘80s-style hard rock bands like Danger Danger, Enuff Z’Nuff, and Trixter.

Limited production run

Today, the Badlands Guitar Company® is proud to present its own interpretation of this iconic ‘80s guitar finish for our second run of USA built, limited edition, custom shop quality instruments. We’ve also put our own special twist on this stunning finish by adding black-burst edges and sealing the holoflash film under clear coat to keep the sparkle factory fresh gig after gig.

The GX1 Holoflash H/S features our specially designed, USA made, handwound BGC M88 humbucker paired with our newly developed exclusive single coil, the M81. The M81’s big, rich tonal personality is complemented by reverse slant for tighter low-end and fatter high-end response, not to mention rad looks. The neck features our fast GX1 profile and is treated with a warm vintage tint and smooth gloss finish for speed and comfort. It’s also topped with an ebony fretboard, a first for BGC, with a new custom planetary inlay at the twelfth fret. Of course, the GX1 Holoflash H/S also features our perfectly balanced, matching headstock with signature holoflash finish detail.
