Ulrich describes the double set of tone bars on his ONE guitar as Autumn and Spring or as the pessimistic and optimistic. Having witnessed and experienced big life changes, personal losses and struggles during the past year he said that all of it influenced him in his design process.
For Ulrich Po3 has presented the opportunity to step out of his comfort zone of his usual unusual production models. Even though a Birdfish model by design, this guitar is very different and one-of-a-kind. Ulrich is allowing himself a new playfulness and is experimenting with new or re-discovered techniques and media. For the first time in over 30 years Ulrich picked up the paintbrush to hand-decorate the tone bars in ways not seen before, and perhaps to not be seen again... Bravely forging ahead with an acid wash the nickel parts usually polished to great shine were changed.
"Not relic-ed but really like a forgotten guitar" says Ulrich about the nickel parts that now have an outstanding coloring with blues and golds.
This superb guitar remains true to his style in its clear and clean lines. Beyond that, the two sets of tone bars have a unique beauty and great visual appeal, painted with a leaf-like pattern. The Autumn set impresses with amber-like depth and beautiful coloring, the painted and lacquered tone bars look like fallen leaves were enclosed in glass. The Spring set reminds of a walk through a spring wood (Michael called it Spring in Central Park) with its healthy, crisp green and yellow coloring. It certainly is another masterpiece by this gifted designer and guitarmaker.
