Samurai Kyomoto - A guitar that only a Japanese rock star can love
by Matt Burns on August 20, 2008

Made out of hard maple and ebony, the only thing we have to say about this 22 fret guitar is WTF. Oh, and that purple handle is a real life Samurai sword for hardcore crowd control. You can’t buy the guitar either; it was only built for Masaki Kyomoto. Sorry.

Click through for some lovely pics.

  • That thing is probably the worst looking guitar I’ve ever seen - and I’ve seen some crap looking guitars in my time.

  • I donno if it’s the worst I’ve seen. I love it for being as artistic and well put together as it is. The overall design is a little out there, but I think that’s what makes it so appealing to me. It’s probably heavy as hell, but I bet that makes for some great sustain.
