Michihiro Matsuda Guitars

I was made aware of this master luthier recently. Some absolutely stunning work. I have no doubt they sound great, but I just love them for the craftsmanship and design.

Those are amazing. Truly works of art. Oh yeah, I also want one!

The actual guitar in my first shot is for sale for $17,995. (http://www.dreamguitars.com/detail/2764-matsuda_m1_low_d_extension_67/) A bit out of my price range though :cry: Check out the drop tuning setup.
