Vigier Passion I Historic Limited Edition in Urban Metal #053

Vigier, pioneers of carbon fibre, has gone back to their roots with just five hand-crafted Passion I guitars. The bodies, which date back to 1983, have been completed with all modern electronics, special hand-wound Amber pickups and modern finishing touches for these extremely rare, one of a kind, neck-thru Vigier guitars.

These are the very last bodies from this glorious period in Vigier's rich history and have been naturally drying, in the Vigier factory, since 1983. Picked out after a factory visit from UK manager, Ben Whatsley, who then subsequently discussed bringing these Passion I's 'back to life' with master luthier, Patrice Vigier.

Patrice and his small, but highly skilled team of luthiers, spent considerable time and effort to ensure the Passion I's were completed in meticulous detail, getting them just right, with all the advances that Vigier has made over the years.
A few lucky players will get to own these extremely rare Passion I's, that are now a living part of Vigier's history-meets present.

I like the understatement overall. Body shape is not bad. Paint job I hate less than I probably should. I I were playing in a metal band I might consider that. Maybe.

Aside from that, no thank you.
 
Somehow I really can't see Mary Spender playing one of these...
God, I hope not. That finish is awful.

I really dislike here Vigier’s. I wish she played the St. Vincent more. Much cooler guitar, especially her limited one of one orange model.
 
I want to like it but that finish looks like someone tried to invent a camo pattern silverburst with a rattlecan job in his garage.
