KG PROTO III
Handcrafted 7-String Guitar
It doesn’t need the shadows to exist — it burns, it reigns, it dazzles before the very first note.
The KG Proto III is a handcrafted 7-string electric guitar designed and built in France by K Guitars. Its Black Limba body and neck, paired with a Royal Ebony fretboard and a versatile electronics configuration, make it an instrument designed to combine power, precision, and playing comfort. Its Aztec Gold finish gives it a distinctive aesthetic that reflects the character of its design.
