Here's a one of a kind piece originally created for an exhibit at the Oceanside Museum of Art in San Diego. It was also exhibited in the Fender Museum of Music and the Arts. Fender built the guitar in '01 and it was sent to California artist John DeMarco, who painted a Texas Flood* on the front and a portrait of SRV on the back. There are also song lyrics, assumably in SRV's handwriting, transferred onto the pickguard!

Beautiful piece of art. The 22-fret, abalone-inlaid maple neck has some serious figuring on it.

That guitar was being sold at my OC Guitar Center in So Cal about 1-year ago, Mgr offered to me for $2k-ish, but I passed, didn't like the feel of it/specs.

Not a FCS piece. Somebody painted a guitar after it was bought I believe.
