YORK RANGE
Unleash Classic Mojo with the PJD York Series: Handcrafted in the UK
The PJD York series channels the spirit of iconic electric guitars, blending timeless design with modern playability and authentic British craftsmanship. Available in the versatile York Standard and the elevated York Elite, these guitars are built in the UK for players who crave that classic snap, twang, and versatility for any musical style.
Both the York Standard and York Elite feature lightweight bodies shaped for comfort. The Standard uses resonant Obeche body wood, known for its balanced and lively sound. The Elite gives you more tonal options with premium Alder, Swamp Ash, or Mahogany body woods, letting you shape your core tone from bright and airy to warm and full.
Experience a smooth playing feel with the Standard C profile Maple neck and easy-to-play Jescar frets. Both models offer Maple or Indian Rosewood fingerboards, with the Elite also featuring a slick Ebony option. Upgrade to a Roasted Flamed Maple neck for a more stable feel and great looks on both models.
The voice of the York comes from its pickups. The York Standard is loaded with PJD's own hand-wound 'High Tea' single coils. These pickups are voiced specifically for this guitar to deliver that classic T-style chime, bite, and dynamic punch. The York Elite offers more flexibility with options for a Neck P90 or Humbucker alongside a Bridge T Style or Humbucker, covering everything from classic twang to fatter rock tones. Premium Gotoh hardware keeps you in tune, and the Elite model offers a Tremolo option for adding vibrato and pitch bends.
Make your York your own with a choice of classic and metallic body colours, an optional 'Spray Over' aged finish on the Standard for a worn-in look, painted headstocks, and various pickguard colours like Cream, Black, White, Tortoise Shell, and Bakelite. Each PJD York guitar is a pro-grade instrument, proudly hand-built in the UK and comes with a premium gig bag, ready for you to plug in and make some noise.
