The Valenti Nebula Carved Semihollow #140
Ebony and Gold! That is the only way we can describe this Nebula Carved Semi from Valenti Guitars. You get a whole load of figured macassar ebony with this guitar, fretboard, body, neck…even then knobs are carved from the same piece of ebony as the body! As for the gold, you get gold hardware, gold fretwire and gold leaf chamfer to the headstock! Lovingly dubbed 'The Macassar' #140 and available in the UK now.
