Model M from “The Tree”

This guitar was made, in part, from the wood of a tree with a genetically mutated grain figuring. “The Tree” earned its vogue status in the luxury woodworking industries when it was discovered in a forest in Belize in the 1960s. It is the only tree known to exist that exhibits the tortoise shell-like figuring you see on the back and sides of the guitar.
