Description
This is such an unusual guitar and the only one I have come across, most likely due to the incredibly limited numbers. With only 50 produced and released, worldwide, it is unlikely that I will see another and this one is pristine. With the limited run it was kept in collectible condition. Built in 2008, it looks like it could have been made in 2025 or 2026, easily. The thing is, the tone coming out of this guitar is incredible. It really should be played, as well as admired for its beauty and the neck makes it a joy to play, as well. The Custom Shop really took their time with this one, making a guitar that works as a superior instrument at all levels.
