Up for sale/Trade is my BARITONE XOX The handle Guitar AKA Billytone. This guitar is the prototype, later titled the "Billytone" after being endorsed by the great bass player Billy Sheehan. It hits those LOWS with only a 26.5inch scale which makes it easy to adjust to from a standard length guitar. The sound and sustain defies ones understanding of the importance of an instruments mass.  It's a very versatile guitar; Play Jazz, Blues, rockabilliy, or just thrash. Think Peter Hook of New Order. This guitar is a freak of nature, made in Italy and winner of multiple design awards. It is built from a single piece of molded carbon fiber into a body and neck with a hollow sound chamber built into the body. This guitar is no gimmick, its the real deal. Leave it in your trunk under the blazing sun or freezing cold and the carbon fiber unibody should stay in tune. Due to the guitars carbon fiber unibody and stainless steel frets- it will survive the ZOMBIE APOCOLYPSE. 

I play it drop tuned in both B to B or C to C.  It was made before the BILLYTONE logo and features the zig zag fret markers that come at an extra charge. Everything about this guitar is top notch; from materials, knobs and parts to wiring. This guitar, made by XOX Audio Tools, exceeds the build quality of PRS, Fender Custom Shop, Fender Masterbuilt, Johan Gustavson and Gibson Custom shop Guitars. 

Collectors will enjoy knowing, per XOX audio, it is a prototype and it is also the ONLY one made with the zigzag inlays AND that I purchased it from Shane Gibson of the Band KORN here in LA after he so graciously agreed to give me some lessons. It was played on stage by him many times until Jonathan Davis Kicked the guitar out of the band for being funny looking :) Just kidding...Shane has a sponsor and a signature model guitar he must play so It is still in very good condition. Will come with a gig bag.  New this guitar will cost $4700 plus shipping and a 4-6 month wait. Save big and get it right away. 

Make me an offer. Trades offers with cash welcome too

"that was the first model of baritone that we made, it is the only one XOX baritone version with zigzag inlay, you got a unique piece !!  

After that we produced  the other lots with bass clef inlay at the 12th fret and renamed the guitar "Billytone" because of the endorsement to Billy Sheehan.

My best
