IMAGES: Pop Art Pair — vibrant surfaces conceal. Aircraft grade baltic birch ply, torrefied flame maple, Richlite, carbon fiber, anodized aircraft aluminum. RICK TOONE™ patented tremolo system. 10-way switching. Custom DiMarzio™ pickups designed by Steve Blucher.

With this pair of Skeles™ we are blending Modern Art with Monochrome ultra-vibrant Minimalism. Artist grade acrylic paint is heavily layered and brush strokes bring texture to the flat exterior surfaces, inscrutable in its compelling necessity.

From the front, the unrelieved black fretboard and headstock extend the black component theme, forcing the eye to return to unrelenting color.

Inside, the guitar is deconstructed acoustic structuralism, organic wood tones of baltic birch ply and torrefied flame maple. Stunning beauty of the intensely figured quartersawn maple neck is for the player alone — audience faces blank surface consumerism.
