The Interstellar Tone Traveler has deep respect for the boutique builders who pour genuine craft into every instrument — and LSL Instruments out of North Hollywood is among the finest in the galaxy. The Saticoy Mick Mars Tribute is a love letter to one of rock's most underrated and beloved tone warriors: Mötley Crüe's Mick Mars, a guitarist whose voice on the instrument is instantly recognizable and whose influence runs deeper than most casual observers will ever know. Built on an alder body with a birdseye maple neck and dark rosewood fingerboard, this guitar carries LSL's signature approach to Strat-style construction — meticulous, hand-crafted, and built to feel alive. The heavy-aged lacquer finish in 3 Color Sunburst gives it exactly the kind of honest, earned character that resonates with the Interstellar narrative: this guitar doesn't look factory-fresh because it was never meant to. It looks like it's been somewhere, done something, and survived to tell every story.

The previous owner made one meaningful upgrade to this already stellar platform: the original LSL bridge pickup has been swapped for a Seymour Duncan JB — one of the most celebrated hot humbuckers ever wound, perfectly suited to the rock DNA this guitar carries. The original LSL bridge pickup travels with the guitar in the case, making this a best-of-both-worlds situation for the next player. The push/pull tone pot has also been removed for a cleaner, more direct signal path. LSL hand-wound single coil in the middle and an LSL hand-wound humbucker at the neck round out a pickup configuration that covers everything from crystalline clean sparkle to full-throttle rock fury. A Floyd Rose bridge with locking nut ensures tuning stability through the most aggressive dive bombs and pull-ups imaginable, while vintage Fender-logo tuners nod to the classic aesthetic this guitar wears so naturally. At 8 lbs. 3 oz. in mint condition, this Mick Mars Tribute is ready for whoever is bold enough to carry the torch.
