Our T series electric guitar line-up may start with the OG model but this is anything but an 'entry level' guitar.
This hand-carved body and neck is packed with high-end hardware and electronics including hand-wound single-coil pickups designed exclusively for Teran Guitars.
With a price similar to that of mass produced American branded models, we are confident about our OG guitars being one of the absolute best values in the electric guitar market, period.
What is OG?
90+ year old reclaimed Old Growth Fir.
- Rocky Mountain Douglas Fir from decommissioned and demolished Southern Alberta grain elevators.
This beautiful (and plentiful) reclaimed timber would already have been hundreds of years old when harvested by a Canadian logging industry that had not yet realized the benefits of protecting Old-Growth forests.
The harvested timber then endured infamous (and relentless) Southern Alberta Chinook winds for an additional 95+ years when it was used to build the iconic Alberta Grain Elevators.
By repurposing this Old Growth Fir into our OG guitar bodies, we are proud to offer guitarists a piece Canadian heritage while keeping this very special timber relevant for generations to come. Having 'Weather' aged to a hard, tight grain and light weight it is highly resonant producing loud, complex acoustic tones that amplify remarkably.
Wooden grain elevators are an iconic structure that dominated local landscapes since 1895 but the Alberta Wheat Pool discontinued the practice of building them out of wood in 1985.
