Yamaha (model unsure) - 19xx - black finish:
 
DETAILS: I first saw this in pictures of Bono and The Edge playing; from the Rattle and Hum era. Perhaps it is the acoustic guitar that Bono kept with him in hotels for songwriting during the ZOOTV tour, as there is a poster of him in a hotel, dressed in a white bathrobe, sitting in a chair, playing this guitar. The skeleton graphics on this guitar may have been painted by Rene' Castro, who painted The Edge,s 1989 pewter Eric Clapton model Fender Stratocaster.
