About HeliArc Guitars

Rick Adams, is the founder of HeliArc guitars … and had been designing and manufacturing various products in Adams’ Southern California facility for some time.

Rick began experimenting with a guitar design with a new, different look that players of all styles would gravitate to. After a great deal of refinement to the design, HeliArc Guitars was born.

Once the initial design was complete, recording artists were brought onboard to provide an added dimension with their deep, music-industry experience.

Each guitar is handcrafted utilizing high-tech manufacturing methods and the input from multi-platinum artists, and HeliArc Guitars uses aircraft-grade aluminum to create its instruments.

Although various  models of HeliArc Guitars are visually reminiscent of resonator instruments, “HeliArc Guitars are not resonator guitars in the truest sense,” explains Michael Elsner. “For those who have never played a HeliArc Guitar, it is best described as a fusion of the elements of an ES-335 hollowbody and a resonator. Most of our customers are professional musicians that come from a wide variety of music genres, from country to R&B to heavy metal, Punk and everything else you can think of.”
