This is the Colt Limited Edition Blue Moon TBS, inspired by the Blue Moon, the second full moon among the two full moons that appear in a month, and the Super Blue Moon that occurs in August 2023 when the Moon approaches the Earth. An authentic slim OM body design for delicate fingerstyle playing, a rounded Venetian cutaway and beveled armrest for comfortable playing are applied, and a sophisticated mint-like trans blue satin color along with wood inlay and binding provide the mysterious moon and nature. This is a model that expresses feelings.

Features
Master Grade Solid Red Cedar Top

Master grade red cedar, which is softer than spruce. In addition to the overall warm and soft sound, it has a certain limit to loud sounds and tends to make small sounds sound louder, showing its strengths especially in delicate fingerstyle playing.

Master Grade Solid Walnut Back & Sides

Master grade, a walnut with a beautiful pattern that has the warm midrange of mahogany and the solid lowrange of rosewood, was used for the sides and back. It harmonizes with the red cedar top and expresses the natural sound of wood well.

Crescent Moon Rosette

It is an asymmetrical rosette design to express the shape of the moon that changes gradually but without stopping from full moon to crescent moon and back to full moon again.

Ebony Fingerboard

This ebony fingerboard is widely used in high-end instruments from the 15th century to the present due to its high density, hardness, and good elasticity, quick response to sound, and a smooth and soft playing feel due to the oil contained in the wood. In addition to the circular maple inlay position mark symbolizing the full moon, the 12th fret is engraved with a pattern combining the full moon and crescent moon in maple and avalon. Maple purfling was applied to the fingerboard border to add a touch of luxury.

Crescent Moon Wood Inlay on Ebony Headplate

Maple purfling is applied to the ebony head plate made of the same material as the fingerboard, and the Colt logo and patterns symbolizing the full moon and crescent are all engraved with wood inlay using maple and blackwood to maintain the luxurious and nature-friendly image of wood material. I did it.

Gotoh SGL510Z Gold Head Machine

The Goto SGL510Z head machine with a gear ratio of 21:1 allows precise tuning with smooth and stable operation.

Venetian Cutaway & Flamed Blackwood Binding

In addition to the rounded Venetian cutaway for easy high fret playing, flame blackwood was also applied to the binding of the entire body and the heel cap of the neck-body joint, emphasizing the detailed and luxurious natural beauty.Bevel Cut Armrest with Flamed Blackwood

The bevel-cut armrest structure has an ergonomic design for comfortable strokes and fingering, and flame blackwood and maple purfling, made of the same material as the binding, are applied to create a consistent, clean and natural look.

Graph Tech® TUSQ Nut

The Graph Tech® TUSQ nut, nicknamed man-made ivory, is made from a uniform organic polymer and is known for its open, clear tone in both low and high registers. With a nut width of 44.5 millimeters, the generous string spacing shows its true value in fingerstyle and solo performances.

One Piece Mahogany Neck with Ergo-A Asymmetric Neck Profile

Asymmetrical neck profiles are applied to the mahogany one-piece neck, which has a warm and stable sound. The asymmetrical neck profile, ergonomically designed to take the shape of the hand into consideration, provides improved stability in all playing situations, including chords and solos.
