Up for grabs is a one-of-a-kind Prisma Accardo in excellent condition. These guitars have a top made from old skateboards, which gives them a unique look. This model has a mahogany body and neck, and McNelly Sparkletrons for the pickups. It plays and sounds awesome and is just a really cool instrument. It is in excellent shape overall. There are a few small dings up around the headstock that I tried to show in the photos. One is on the tip of the headstock, almost like a small scratch. Another is on the bass side where the fingerboard runs into the headstock. There is also a small mark on the side of the headstock by the first tuner. These aren't very noticeable and affect play in no way. Otherwise I can't see any other blemishes anywhere else. Frets are in great shape, as is the hardware. Description from Prisma and specs are listed below. It comes with a very nice soft case from Mono.
From Prisma:
At Prisma Guitars, we want to make sure that we’re making the best guitars possible, with no sacrifices in tone or playability. That comes before everything else.
If we had to pick a favorite Prisma model---please don’t make us---it would be the Accardo. At its root, the Accardo design was drawn from scratch and is meant to be a jack-of-all-trades, double cutaway electric guitar. This Accardo body is constructed out broken skateboards and as always finished in a thin nitrocellulose lacquer for maximum resonance and sustain. We pride ourselves especially on how drop-dead cool these models turn out when completed in terms of aesthetic, every pattern is one-of-a-kind!
The body is packed with what we think are the best sounding McNelly/Prisma pickups available, the Sparkletron. We’re more than confident in saying that these are some of the best sounding replacements for the vintage Filter'Tron pickups on the market, and they give this guitar a sonic character that’s new, yet familiar and suitable for all styles of playing.
Like our other guitars, the Accardo is fitted stock with a nitro-finished, C-shape mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard. This guitar will feel comfortable in most any players hands and provides very little resistance to fast runs and big Albert King-style bends. For any lover of old school blues, funk jazz or rock ‘n’ roll, this guitar is sure not to disappoint on a playing or sonic level.
