The blue is Lapis Lazuli, a semi-precious natural blue tone mined all over the work. From what I can tell, Knaggs grinds it down and inlays it into the top. I have seen them do this on a few other guitars as well. It looks insane. I was skeptical about tone but it's just fantastic. I have owned three of these now and each one has had a unique character -as all guitars do. This one is bad-ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Haynie Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I like the video, but the lapis lazuli is stone that had to be cut and placed into the wood on that guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only reason I am letting go is the neck, It' just a tad too fat for me : ( Plays like silk, Absolutely no wear, this could pass as a new guitar! Here's the original ad with specs and info. https://reverb.com/au/item/4403944-knaggs-guitars-steve-stevens-ssc-spalt-maple-with-lapis-stone-inlay-w-signed-backplate-ray-gun She is a happy and healthy 9.5Lbs -IMO the tone you get is worth the weight. The neck measures .880 at the first fret and .990 at the 12th -no baseball bat but too much heft for me. As for tone, you can expect a modern take on the vintage LP. The build quality, weight and BK pickups give you loads of sustain and woodsy goodness -Beast is definitely the most accurate word to describe this guitar! She plays flawlessly and is easily on par with any of the three Paul Reed Smith Private Stock guitars I have owned. I will consider trades for guitars only. I am good on amps. Thinking.... If you have a great Hamer or two, or a Les Paul with thinner neck maybe a PRS, but it would have to be in the same league and have the WT neck profile. I also like Super Strats, just PM me, you never know, worst I can do is say no thanks. $3900 sell or trade Ok Jake I am not blaming you, but I clicked on the Reverb link you provided and now all the dam prices on Reverb are in $AUD not US $Dollars. I know the Aussie's are having a hell of heat wave down there, were we have been dealing with polar vortex and -30 and 20 minute drives to work are turning into 2 hour drives here in Minnesota. Of course Reverb has no place to set your country of origin or currency. Sorry to derail your thread for my rant!! That is a sweet looking guitar and like you I can't deal with the bigger necks.
