A solid-body guitar with the hand of a dragon carved into the body with airbrushed colors
The body of this guitar is alder with a dragon’s hand carved into the lower bout and airbrushed green/blue with gold claws and red tear marks in the guitar. The body is sprayed silver on the top, and is a sunburst to a center of white on the back. The dragon inlay on the rosewood fingerboard is of brass, abalone and mother of pearl. The inlay on the headstock is of a Chinese theme dragon and made with the same inlay materials. There are side fingerboard dots only. The pickups are P-90 and handwound by me. There is a single volume and tone control. All hardware is chrome.
