Archer Guitars Begins Production Of K Sulton Signature Bass Guitar

Archer Guitars, USA of Milwaukee, Wisconsin is pleased to announce their long-awaited K Sulton Signature Bass Guitar is ready to enter the production phase and will be ready for retail availability by late spring of 2006.

Designed in collaboration with legendary bassist Kasim Sulton, the K Sulton Signature Bass was recently put through its paces on an international tour with multi-platinum artist Meat Loaf. Archer concurrently launched an innovative Road Test website which allowed musicians and fans to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the tour and to get Sulton's ongoing comments and thoughts on the K Sulton Signature Bass Guitar's performance.

"The Road Test concept served its purpose well," says Archer CEO Michael Houser. "Our technicians were able to fine-tune the K Sulton Signature Bass to perfection in an actual professional touring situation."

Loaded with professional features (see www.ksultonbass.com for complete details), the K Sulton Signature Bass has been designed to provide the highest possible quality at a surprisingly affordable price. Interested parties can find out more and can also pre-order at the above listed website or by contacting Archer Guitar Regional Manager Joel Bohlen at 262.957.4595.
