Unbranded Stratocaster Style Electric Guitar with Dragon Inlay and Heavily Scalloped Neck. This guitar has been customised by a previous owner to feature 21 deep scalloped frets.
"Over the years there have been many modifications to the electric and acoustic guitar. One of the more radical ones is the use of a scalloped fingerboard. This is an irreversible modification that ‘scoops out’ the wood between the frets.
The idea of having little or no wood between the frets of a fretted instrument isn’t new in music. The South Indianveena(or vina) has been built this way long before Yngwie travelled beyond the sun. The Indian sitar (which came many years after the veena) has raised, curved frets with strings running above and below these frets. In many traditional Asian and Indian music forms, notes are bent by pushing straight down into the neck, rather than bent side to side as on a traditional guitar. This facilitates very wild bending that you hear in this music, music that is based in single notes played over sustained drones (www.seymourduncan.com)".
Second-hand, in good condition, some cosmetic wear as shown in photos.
