This special little guitar fro Basone has some pretty cool features. This specific model is unfortunately one-of-a-kind, but that doesn't mean we can't look at it.
This strange design features a chambered Honduran Mahogany body with a carved maple top and a stability arm that connects the body to the headstock. This unique feature is said to give the guitar more resonance, thus improving sustain. Prince rocked one of these in the 80s. The finish is also painted on with a special kind of paint that shifts from a light, icy blue to cyan to gold, depending on the lighting.
Now this is where the Talon gets interesting...
This guitar has a 20 milli-watt, military-grade laser bored into the headstock! That's not all, its also got LEDs in the fretboard inlays that all have their own stitches to turn them on and off.

Now, just imagine Prince with this throw-back to the 80s! I can see the new Purple Rain video now...
Anyways, Basone guitars are made in Vancouver, BC and their custom guitars start around $1800. Pricey, but cool.
