レンブラント・スカイ（ファミリー：ペガサス・スカイギター）
概要
レンブラント・スカイは2本目となる7弦仕様スカイギターです。マイティ・ウイングの後継機として製作された5本目のスカイギターで、
ディミトゥリオの手による最後の原型スカイギターとなりました。
また、マホガニー材を使用した最初のスカイギターでもあり、これは重要な特徴です。マイティ・ウイングは技巧派演奏を新たな高みへと
導くものでしたが、レンブラント・スカイは別の目的のために製作されました。弦間ピッチもその一つで、マイティ・ウイングよりも広く
なりましたが、それでも一般的な7弦ギターよりはまだ若干狭いです。

Jamming with Michael Schenker in 2001
Although a 7-string does not easily lend itself to playing Jimi Hendrix style, Uli chose the Rembrandt Sky because of its phenomenal tone for his appearance in a television show which featured Jimi’s music. Cologne, Germany, 1991
At the Monsters of Rock Festival, Turin, Italy 1998
The Rembrandt Sky is also featured strongly in the Legends of Rock DVD from 2001, where he used it during his performances with UFO as well as Jack Bruce.
The Rembrandt Sky was also one of the two main protagonists on Uli’s album “Transcendental Sky Guitar”, which came in two sides: “The Phoenix and the Dragon”. The Rembrandt Sky was assigned the role of “the Dragon”.
