Steven Seagal is undoubtedly a formidable action film star and a martial arts expert, but few know he is also a passionate guitar collector! Explore a few guitars from his collection, remarkable pieces that showcase his love for music.
Some seasoned guitar collectors are well aware of Steven Seagal’s massive collection. Matt’s Guitar Shop has sold several instruments from his collection, each reflecting his refined taste in music. Here’s a quick look at two of these guitars, still available!
The Fender Stratocaster Sparkle Custom Shop John English (1995): A Unique Piece
First, this remarkable and truly unique Fender Stratocaster!
This is a Custom Shop model built by Fender master builder John English in 1995, at Steven Seagal’s request. It features a stunning blue “sparkle” finish that glimmers brilliantly under the light. Its flamed maple neck and pearloid pickguard complete the guitar’s visual appeal. A fun detail: the back plate reads “Custom built for Steven Seagal.” A rare Custom Shop Strat, with a distinguished provenance, still available!
The Chet Atkins’ 1987 Gibson Custom Shop Prototype
This guitar is another fascinating instrument that reflects Steven Seagal’s refined musical taste. It is a small piece of music history: a prototype made for Chet Atkins by the Gibson Custom Shop, with exceptional attention to detail and materials. Chet Atkins also signed the headstock. A rare instrument, whose craftsmanship alone is enough to convince anyone of its beauty!
