Kepler 8. This example has a Bubinga and Elm Burl body, with a Black Limba, Flame Maple and Padouk neck and Myrtlewood fretboard. The 25.5-27in multiscale keeps the upper strings lively while the monstrous low B and F# are tight, responsive and stable.

A pair of Bare Knuckle Polymaths (with coil split) provide the goods, with ABM single saddle bridges and Sperzel locking tuners keep everything attached.

This is the first guitar to sport the Juniper inlay.
