C'est une série limitée qui se distingue des Goldtop habituelles par 3 caractéristiques: 1) Un armrest 2) Un pickguard custom ES-295-style 3) Un dos cherry (les autres Goldtop standard ont un dos naturel). L'exemplaire que j'ai eu est pas trop lourd et a un sustain de folie. Pour les délires à la Santana ou Gary Moore, c'est vraiment bluffant. Ca aurait été sympa d'avoir des goodies adaptés (une sangle customisée ou une photo de Mary Ford) mais pour le tarif, la guitare est franchement pas mal. Difficile de savoir si le modèle sera collector.
