What would a guitar befitting a King look like? Well, if that certain "King" in question just happened to be Elvis Presley, the guitar would look exactly like this one! This D-28 EP is # 144 of only 175 ever made, making it rare in and unto itself. But, the real story is the hand tooled leather that Elvis insisted on way back in 1955. I guess a man on his way up back in the 50's would want a guitar that made a statement about himself and what better way to proclaim to the world that there is a new sheriff in town (and his initials are E.P.) than to have a guitar custom made for himself? 'Elks, I'm not ashamed to admit, when I was a kid and Blue Hawaii or Kid Galahad came on, I, along with my brother watched every second of it. Later on as an adult, I took a tour of Graceland and man, if you have never been there, you can defiantly feel a presence when you first walk in. Elvis, to me was a great man whose spirit left an indelible mark on those he touched through his voice, his charity and his humility. In closing, this guitar is as unique as the Man that it was created for. In the words of Elvis Presley:

"Without a song, the day would never end,

Without a friend, a man ain't got a friend.

Without a song, the road would never bend,

Without a song, so I keep singing a song."
