A very special version of one of our fab Lion Cub DC modern contours guitars.
Inspired by a rather nice Lamborghini Aventador that drives through our neighbourhood.
We decided to have some real fun and carry the theme of this distinctive car through the build.
We even had the guitar finished in the proper Arancia Atlas "orange pearl" colour that Lamborghini use
