* Nik Huber Blue Whale - Limited Charity Edition 18/25 ONE OFF
This is the last Blue Whale that it is coming out of our DG Series 3/3, where each was different.
It‘s all about the blue whale!
It is no coincidence that this extraordinary guitar shares its name with the giant of the oceans. In cooperation with whale researcher Richard Sears, Nik Huber Guitars offers this stunning piece of guitar art in a 25 piece limited edition.
The profit from this special edition Blue Whale will support Sears‘ Mingan Island Cetacean Study‘s research devoted to the conservation of this most impressive but endangered whale species.
