Guitar Adoptions Fun Fact:

TV Yellow was developed in the late fifties to help alleviate the problem of white under bright lights kicking off a wicked glare and playing merry hob with the black and white cameras of the day.

The Larrivee RS2 in TV Yellow was created to look completely bad ass. Now this is not a confirmed or verified fact and to be honest I just made that up but take one look at the Larrivee RS2 in TV Yellow and try and disagree with me. Go on. I will wait…..Uh huh.
