Kz Guitar Works is a brand based in Zushi City, Kanagawa Prefecture, that manufactures high-quality guitars.
They are known for producing Queen's Brian May model guitar, which has received worldwide acclaim.
In addition to the critically acclaimed Red Special, the manufacturer's original model is also highly acclaimed for its excellent playability and high-quality sound, and is currently used by renowned guitarists such as Kazumi Watanabe.
This model is the True Kitaro, the signature model of Tomoya Nishio, who is active in a variety of genres.
It is a limited edition of only three units, and one is currently in use by Tomoya Nishio.
The other one has already been sold, and this is the last one.
It has the same specifications as the model actually used by Nishio, so it could be called a sibling model, so to speak.
There are no plans to reproduce this model in the future, making it an extremely rare model.
The body back is made of chambered Honduras Mahogany, and the top is made of beautiful, undulating burled maple.
This guitar features an original, slightly rounded body design, a natural finish that brings out the wood grain, and decorative binding that gives the overall look an elegant feel.
The neck is made of Honduras Mahogany and the fingerboard is made of Jacaranda.
Jacaranda is a wood that was used by Fender and Gibson at certain times, but is now known for its rarity and international trade being restricted.
The scale length is 25 inches, the fingerboard radius is 12 inches, and the fretboard is fitted with medium-jumbo stainless steel frets, making this a modern instrument.
The high-quality frets and neck area provide smooth playability that is suitable for a variety of techniques.
The pickups are Kz Classic Humbuckers in the neck and bridge, and a Kz Classic Single Alnico2 in the middle, in an HSH configuration.
The Kz Classic Humbucker is based on a vintage '50s humbucker and produces a clear, fat sound.
The Kz Classic Single Alnico2 produces a crisp, brilliant sound.
The pickup layout is HSH with a coil tap, providing a wide range of tonal versatility that you wouldn't expect from a single guitar.
The hardware is also impeccable, with Gotoh locking tuning machines and a Gotoh two-point tremolo bridge.
This guitar embodies Nishio Tomoya's commitment to gorgeous looks, excellent playability, superior sound, and a wide range of tones, and has been assembled by skilled craftsmen using the finest woods.

All aspects except the appearance are guaranteed.
