Ohta Katsu!

Head on over to our Official MySpace page, and check out a cool addition!
We just uploaded an awesome song into the music player, an original song recorded by golden boy Ohta Katsu.

Ohta Katsu

Yesterday, Katsu came by our office with a very nice surprise. It seems he recorded an original song to donate to us for promo on the MySpace. This is an awesome way, not only for you to hear a Combat Guitar being shredded like nobody's business, but for you to also hear Katsu's amazing guitar playing.


For those who don't yet know the name Ohta Katsu, he is one of Japan's golden-boy Guitar heroes. His popularity continues to rise every year and is being featured in an increasing amount of magazine coverage, guitar books, DVD's and other media forms of guitar instruction and adoration, not just in Japan but in many other Countries and websites/ magazines, etc from abroad.

Ohta Katsu stumbled upon Combat Guitars a few years ago and has not looked back since. He continues to play and stand behind Combat, using Combat Guitars for all of his studio and live work.

Katsu's weapon of choice is the Combat ST Series. His are custom made a smaller size than a usual ST style guitar. Made with an Alder body, one-piece bolt on Maple neck and Dimarzio Virtual Solo pickups in all 3 positions. A standard set-up of 3-way toggle switch, one Master Vol and two Tone controls. He changes the head shape on different guitars, all of which are Combat original designs. The jumbo scalloped frets are also an important feature Katsu demands for his guitars.
