*Made by British maker Kay John in the Forest of Dean in 2017. This was his first prototype guitar, built from scratch with the intention to practice electric guitar building whilst assessing if his artwork would translate well onto a guitar. Kay's love of British woodlands inspired the use of only English and Welsh grown hardwoods. Sold with a handwritten note from the maker including the spec of the guitar
