Amber Maxwell.
"Awkward beauty," said one person upon seeing this Maxwell. "The Gilded Goon," another called it affectionately. This solid-body electric guitar stands out as a functional favorite of mine. I have always disliked gold hardware, but as this Amber Maxwell guitar came together it just seemed to cry out for gold. A cream-color headstock pushed it over the top.
