Used R. Taylor Style 1 Striped Ebony/Swiss Alpine Moon Spruce: (EXC+) Take a look at this amazing striped Ebony body! Then ponder the violet oyster shell rosette and diamond fingerboard inlays specially designed by Larry Breedlove. This guitar sounds better than it looks.

Whatever it is, don't let this masterpiece get away. The sound is rich and profound with precise clarity rarely heard with any other tonewood. It's definitely one of a kind that will be a treasure throught the ages. Rosewood binding, 65' top radius, and modified-X bracing with antique gold Gotoh tuners that are smoother than smooth.
