The world-renowned, collectible Faberg\u00e9 eggs were jewel-encrusted luxury items created for the Russian royal family in the decades before the Russian Revolution of 1917. <\/p>\n<p>The guitar is decorated with 550 diamonds and incorporates 10 feet of 18-karat gold wire ribbon inlay on a single-piece maple body. Shishkov hand-engraved the instrument\u2019s hardware, and the knobs and switches are also decorated with diamonds. <\/p>\n<p>It also uses old-stock pickups wound by veteran pickup technician Abigail Ybarra, whose tenure at Fender goes back to the era when it was still run by founder Clarence \u201cLeo\u201d Fender.<\/p>\n<p>Making such one-of-a-kind guitars is beyond the dreams Shishkov had as a young man living near Chernobyl in the former Soviet Union, before he emigrated to the U.S. In America, Shishkov found work building guitars first at Washburn, before joining Fender in 2000.<\/p>\n<p>As Shishkov put it when I visited him in Corona six years ago, \u201cIf somebody would tell me when I lived in Soviet Union, \u2018You&#8217;re going to end up at Custom Shop building guitars for famous people,\u2019 I guarantee I would believe more if somebody tell me, \u2018You will fly to space.&#8217; &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/randylewis2\">@RandyLewis2<\/a> on Twitter for pop music coverage<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"trb_mainContent_copyright\">Copyright \u00a9 2015, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.latimes.com\">Los Angeles Times<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Original article (source)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.latimes.com\/entertainment\/music\/posts\/la-et-ms-fender-stratocaster-pine-cone-faberge-custom-20150124-story.htm\">http:\/\/www.latimes.com\/entertainment\/music\/posts\/la-et-ms-fender-stratocaster-pine-cone-faberge-custom-20150124-story.htm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fender&#8217;s Pine Cone Stratocaster guitar on display at the 2015 NAMM Show, the annual convention of the musical products trade group, features 550 diamonds and 10 feet of 18-karat gold wire inlay.
