Tak Matsumoto of B'z (one of the greatest Japanese rock bands) visited us in L.A. and we kicked off a great collaborative relationship on several guiatrs.  In addition to his McSwain Machine Series Custom, Tak commissioned the "Dragon V" as a surprise gift for B'z singer Koshi Inaba. We began with a single chunk of mahogany and carved, and carved, and carved some more... The eyes are inlaid rubies that glow bright red when the tone knob is pulled up.  Domo Arigato Tak-san!!!!
