PRESS RELEASE: Black i Distribution, the official distributor of Spear Guitars in the UK, has announced the launch of a new UK-based Spear website, www.spear-guitars.com. The company has made the decision to sell direct to the public to offer a level of service not generally seen in the UK.

When a customer buys a guitar or bass from Black i they can specify the gauge - and brand - of strings supplied and the playing action. Black i can also supply the guitar set up for a particular tuning: standard, alternate, drop D... you name it. The instrument will have its frets dressed, have its intonation adjusted and be fully tested before it's posted to the customer in a free gigbag.

Spear instruments range in price from £229 to £499. They come with a range of pickups depending on which guitar you buy including Spear Monster 'buckers, EMG-HZ pickups and the Seymour Duncan 'Jeff Beck' model.

Guitar models include the highly regarded Gladius SP NOP neck-thru body rock guitar, the distressed (in a good way!) RD-Relic with P90 pickups and the Evil Monkey Series. Full specifications of each guitar and bass can be found on the new website.

Black i Distribution will officially launch the new Spear website at the Music Live Show in November 2009 but the site is live and ready to eyeball now.
