Seller's description

This model was introduced as the signature model of B'z guitarist Takahiro Matsumoto. This is one of the reissued limited-edition models originally produced in 2014. It features an asymmetrical double cutaway design with a mahogany body, mahogany neck, and ebony fingerboard. Characterized by a luxurious look reminiscent of a Les Paul Custom—combining a black body with gold hardware and split diamond inlays on the headstock—this guitar exudes sophistication. It features a set neck with a deep-joint construction and 22 frets, designed to facilitate easy access to the higher frets. It is equipped with Gibson USA Burstbucker 2 and Burstbucker 3 pickups. The combination of humbuckers with distinct characteristics in the front and rear positions allows for a wide range of tones, from clean to heavy drive sounds. The simple control layout—featuring two volume controls, one tone control, and a three-way selector—enables intuitive operation. In addition to the unique character of Takahiro Matsumoto’s signature model, this guitar features meticulously selected specifications, such as an ebony fingerboard and Gibson USA pickups.
