About Me

RKS is a guitar company that likes to push the envelope but at the same time, offer a great playing instrument with an undeniable sound. Setting the groundwork with their RS Series and Wave Series, RKS has now introduced three more guitars for 2007, the Om, the Shaman, and the Guru. Look for these guitars at your local retail guitar store...This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

My Interests

When you first see an RKS RS Series Guitar, you are struck by its visuals. This is definitely a new guitar design.When you pick it up and play it, the first experience is one of comfort and familiarity. Guitar players have told us that our guitars feel like an old friend, and that they dont have to adjust their technique or thinking to play them.

As you get more familiar with an RS you start to feel the benefits; the placement of the controls, the sustain, the note-to-note clarity and definition, the amazing resonance, and the obsessive craftsmanship. You find yourself being able to do things you havent done before on the instrument.We are guitar-people. We have played countless electric guitars and basses. We know what we love about the instruments that preceded ours. We know what we desire in the instruments of our dreams and so we build them.
