2001 Warrior King's Closet Dran Michael Quilt Top & Back w Piezo & Brazilian Board ~ Cherry Burst

If this guitar had any more quilted maple, you'd have to buy it a California King mattress!

Feast your eyeballs on this absolutely spectacular 2001 Warrior King's Closet KC40, featuring enough breathtaking quilted maple to make an entire lumberyard reconsider its career choices!

And this isn't just another pretty face.

KC40 identifies this extraordinary instrument as the 40th King's Closet guitar produced, making it an early example of Warrior's prestigious custom-built series.

As if that weren't enough, the late J.D. Lewis personally upgraded the electronics just a few short years ago, giving this already remarkable instrument an even more meaningful connection to the legendary craftsman behind Warrior Guitars.

We're talking a magnificent Cherry Burst finish, matching quilted maple top and back, gorgeous abalone appointments, three Seymour Duncan Classic Stack pickups, gold hardware, gold knurled control knobs, and a wonderfully slim neck profile.

Even the original alligator-pattern hardshell case is dressed for the occasion. The factory protective plastic is STILL on the latches!

This is the kind of guitar that makes you forget why you walked into the room.

Condition & What's Included

This spectacular Warrior is in Mint Collector’s Condition, having been exceptionally well cared for over its approximately 25-year lifetime.

The highly figured quilted maple top and matching back are absolutely breathtaking, with a rich Cherry Burst finish that highlights every ripple, curl, and contour of the wood.

The gold hardware and beautiful abalone appointments complement the instrument perfectly.

One particularly special feature is the custom electronics upgrade personally performed by J.D. Lewis, incorporating three Seymour Duncan Classic Stack pickups and a versatile switching arrangement.

Also included is the original Alligator-Pattern Hardshell Case with the Factory Protective Plastic Still On The Latches, Warrior Certificate designating this as KC40 (the 40th KC built), the case candy and special “Y” cable in case you want to play through an acoustic amp and electric amp at the same time! Very cool feature here!

With its early King's Closet designation, extraordinary quilted maple construction, custom electronics personally upgraded by J.D. Lewis, and beautiful original presentation, this is an exceptional opportunity to own a very special piece of Warrior history.

And if you're waiting for another King’s Closet of this caliber to come along, you might want to pack a lunch. And dinner. And possibly make arrangements for retirement.
