The true Cadillac of Guitars!

Great condition.

The guitar has some minor surface scratches with the only notable wear marks on this guitar are some scratches at the heel of the neck.  condition. The binding is solid right the way around the guitar, with no chips. There is light tarnish on the Bigsby, Knobs and pickups - which is to be expected from a 20 year old guitar. 

This guitar has a snappy bright attack thanks to the 25.5" scale length and all maple construction. Trestle bracing does a good job at mitigating feedback at higher volumes. There is only about 20% wear on the frets. This guitar has been well cared for for the last 19 years and is ready to become the pride and joy of a new owner.
