THE iconic Gustavsson piece! This is THE FUTUREMASTER Prototype! This was a super small run of 1-piece korina guitars produced by Johan Gustavsson when he had access to fine large blanks of wood…this has dried up and that’s why you rarely see this wood being used.
NOW, see THIS piece and it’s a super light weight QUARTERSAWN (just see the grain) 1-piece body. I’ve owned almost every one of the pieces in this run (I believe 7 were made) and none of the other ones even come close to the woods that this has.
NOW, check out the custom enlarged cutaway which allows you unequalled upper fret access. Again, a feature you won’t find on the others.
OH and the pickups are the Throbak LIMITED SLE 101s (these are $650 alone).
The board?…select BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD!
Weight? 7lb-14oz
You can see the rest of the specs and a detailed condition in the 3rd picture.
This guitar has a freaking HUGE tone. You will LOVE the sound of expert craftsmanship paired with high quality woods. Korina is what maple/mahogany WISHES IT SOUNDED LIKE. Beautiful highs but crisp LOWS. This particular instrument features a hauntingly beautiful upper midrange.
There are few guitars that are seriously additive to any collection. THIS is such a piece. I have spoken…
