Marchione 59 burst semi Hollow 2016 Amber

This Fantastic Guitar is hand-made by Master Luther Stephen Marchione in Houston Texas and is one of the finest instruments I have had the pleasure to play. A true work of art! 

Overall condition is excellent, but it has been lovingly played and we tried to include pictures of the very light wear (honest wear with a minor ding or two). this is a Mike Moreno-inspired model and is among the finest examples Stephen has made; in fact Moreno himself remarked on the quality of this particular guitar.

Beautiful flamed maple top and mahogany back/neck, ebony fingerboard/headstock face, locking tuners and top strap, 1 11/16" wide nut, and 25 1/2" scale.

Like Mike Moreno's Marchione this one is equipped with Tone Specific Virtuoso's ($600 upgrade). It also comes with a one-of-a-kind and very unique case system to protect it. The outer case is a Blake over-sized and padded gig bag/back pack that can be used by itself to transport the guitar to and from the studio/gigs but it also has a super rare vintage (40's) we believe black Alligator case that fits the Marchione like a glove and fits inside the Blake case for the ultimate in supreme protection for those fly dates etc....
