Music is life. Vincent Berton, a French Avant Guard Luthier in the early 1980s had built this VLINE ‘SWORD’. This sword is one of his prized possessions, as he invested lots of time, energy and effort in making this handmade guitar. The knobs, saddle, control plates are all made from solid blocks of brass. This amazing piece of art from Breton, is among his less than a dozen surviving instruments from around the globe. A price tag of $6500, for this rare art of luthiery, is not enough to outcast the beauty of the VLINE ‘SWORD’.
