Shakti DELUXE

The Shakti DeLuxe came from the idea of making something really special and rare. This guitar is not only thought for musicians but also and mostly for collectors. First of all this is part of a strictly limited edition of 10 pieces personally signed by John McLaughlin. While maintaining its hight acoustic quality has gotten new and spectacular features. The guitar is completely decorated with abalone. A very handy "Manzer wedge" help the musician to hug easily the guitar as if it were a smaller one. Two bevel that round the edges at the right arm and at the belly get the guitar more ergonomic.

In agreement with John, part of the profit will be given to a charity.
