What makes this guitar special: Super cool R8 with just an ever so lightly flamed top & a sweet tea finish.

Aside from the normal Gibson Custom Shop documents, there is Yamano Music paperwork written in Japanese. Professionally set up by us with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds amazing!
