Giants Guitar
I do not have permission from the Giants organization to use their name on this guitar. I trust they are not upset by this one-off homage to my beloved team. The Giants host "Metallica Day" every year where Hetfield and Hammett play a fine rendition of the Star Spangled Banner before the game. The guitars they play are emblazoned with the Giants logo and inspired this design. I always thought it would be cool to make one of those guitars for the band so, in my fantasy, this is it. The guitar features detailed woodwork to achieve as much black, white, and orange in the design as possible while allowing the beauty of the wood to show. Go Giants!
