More about 2021 Yuriy Shishkov Prestige Leaves of Tears Stratocaster® NOS
Built with the luxury taste in mind, Yuriy Shishkov’s Leaves of Tears is a delicate and elegant guitar, another example of Yuri’s alternative inlay and decor approach to a handmade embellishment. It has a “wrapping” silver wire inlay pattern around the body, which delivers little sparks with diamonds and diopside stones on each of its branches. The quilt maple wood is well known for its beauty and one of Yuri’s favorite materials for this type of instrument. The contrast between the hand-stained purple burst and precious stones give this guitar it’s unique look. This guitar ticks the boxes of not only a great playing guitar, but also a unique art piece. Complementary of the exotic and lavish features, this guitar will also play like any other high-quality Stratocaster.
This instrument is one-of-kind and was sold to Humbucker Music in Rossville, GA.
