PRESS RELEASE
LightWing Studios Announces AxeGlove™ Guitar Protection System
January 22, 2008
Advertisement AxeGlove™ is a complete, two (2) piece system which encompasses both the neck and body of solid body electric guitars and will be initially offered for Gibson SG, Les Paul Standard, Custom, Deluxe & Double Cutaway models, as well as Fender Stratocaster & Telecaster guitars. Additionally, the AxeGlove provides a "PickPocket"™ guitar pick storage pocket within inches of the players hand. AxeGlove is designed to be used Live or in the Studio and provides unimpeded access to all controls and inputs when utilized. The custom, form fitting design for each model offers protection against wall hanger & guitar stand finish damage, minimizes belt buckle abrasions and provides overall protection to 90 percent of the body/neck thru its unique two layer construction when fully deployed. AxeGlove™ also absorbs sweat & moisture thereby offering further finish protection and is machine washable. AxeGlove™ installation/removal takes but a few minutes; slip on the body and slip on the neck which is secured via three (3) belts across the fingerboard using Velcro pads. All models are offered in four (4) Standard colors; Red, Blue, Black and Tan. Additionally, Limited Editions colors will also be available for all models in both Tie Dye Red and Tie Dye Blue. "AxeGlove™ is the answer to a 50 year old problem guitar players have had to live with. Whether you spend $300 or $3000 for your guitar, they have all been exposed to abuse, wear and tear, all of which has devalued your Axe and made its appearance less than appealing. AxeGlove significantly eliminates those worries and at a very minimal investment," said Patrick Pearce, President of LightWing Studios. "We listened to Guitar players who told us what they needed. We initially developed these to display our own in-house guitars for use during sessions. The incredibly positive reaction to the AxeGlove™ by so many guitarists gave us ideas for better prototypes and improvements all along the way based upon their feedback that we decided to make them available to all players. AxeGlove™ is truly a Guitar player designed product." said Chief Designer Lyuba Pearce.  (Click for close-up)Recent LightWing Studios headlines
