October Guitars is excited to be working with the legendary Canadian Metal band Anvil!

On the heels of their breakthrough documentary "Anvil: The Story of Anvil", October Guitars began working with Anvil on some Custom builds. Lead Guitarist/Vocalist Steve "Lips" Kudlow's instantly recognizable hollow body Flying V guitar has been recreated for him by October, with a second custom build on the way. Lips is currently touring with the prototype, and plans are to have a second USA model finished for him in the next few weeks.

Bassist Glen 5 is currently touring with an October Wraith model 12 string bass, and is working with us on a Custom design as well. Things are still in the early stages, but it's possible that Anvil's Custom designs will be put into production and be available to the public soon. Check back for updates and details!

Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein!

October Guitars is pleased to announce a partnership with none other than the Master of Mayhem himself, Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein!

October Guitars is proud to announce that the legendary NWoBHM band Raven are currently having some custom guitars made at our shop. In the current production stage is a custom 12 string bass for bassist John Gallagher, as well as a custom Tele-style guitar for lead guitarist Mark Gallagher. We gave John a custom 12 string bass to put through the paces, but unfortunately it was destroyed by an airline that shall remain nameless! No worries though; John tweaked a few ideas on the standard design, and a new bass is being built as we speak.

Additionally, things are in the works for Raven to join up as full Endorsers of October guitars, which may even lead to Raven Signature models. Weapons of mass destruction indeed! Check back soon for further details, and pictures of the new Raven instruments.
