Description
Condition: Various surface scratches and some small nicks and dings throughout the finish. There are some pick scratches on the pickguard and opposite side of the pickguard on the body. The strap button near the neck has been removed and replaced on the bass side cutaway (see photos). This could be switched back however it would leave another screw hole. The pickups are unoriginal and the guitar is currently equipped with a great sounding pair of Schaller humbuckers. Extra pickup height-adjustment screw holes have been added to the pickup rings for the new pickups. A couple of the pole pieces don’t match up perfectly with the pickup covers, but they work and sound just fine. Tuners are unoriginal. The current Grover tuners are covering the original screw holes. Fingerboard and frets have moderate play wear and plenty of life left in them. The neck is very straight and the truss rod functions fine. All electronics and parts are in perfect working condition.
Body: Double bound double-cutaway body with flame maple top, back and sides in sunburst finish. Schaller tailpiece with TOM style bridge, skirted control knobs, dual “F’ holes and a bound flame maple pickguard.
Neck: Slender maple neck with bound rosewood fingerboard, pearloid dot inlays and a 1 11/16” nut. Nickel Grover tuners, 24 ¾” scale length.
Pickups/Electronics: Schaller humbuckers in the neck and bridge with dual volume and tone controls and a 3-way selector switch.
Neck: 7.50K Ohms.
Bridge: 8.06K Ohms.
Weight: 8lbs, 4.0oz.
Playability/Sound: The Schaller pickups offer a nice full sound with a great overall presence and plenty of output! The Semi hollow body design allows the sound to open up while retaining plenty of sustain and pick attack. The neck is very comfortable and suitable for virtually any playing style.
Case: Includes original hardshell case. Some original papers are included in the case. Some original papers may be missing.
