Description
This ML Custom art guitar is the first collaboration I’ve done with my friend and artist, Yordan Sucks. I created the ML model (named after my daughter Monique Lanae) primarily for the Asian market over a decade ago, this is one of very few ever offered here in the US. I personally hand-built this one, completing it on June 1st, 2026.
I’ve had the pleasure and honor to work with some amazing visual artists in my career and with each collaboration I’m always trying to venture into new territory. This work with Yordan Sucks is unlike anything I have ever created, and it’s been a total hoot. The artwork inspired me to create the stunning bright pink totally unique pickguard shape and continue the accent to include the backplate and tuning key button “X” inlays. This exciting splash of color highlights the detail in the sea of detailed black and white artwork that he spent countless hours to create.
This guitar represents one of very few instruments that I personally build anymore and a departure from what I think most people expect from me… I think that’s why it’s one of my favorites.
