Description
An exciting R9 that was just recently acquired from the original owner who ordered it brand new earlier this year with a more slender 1960 V2 neck profile rather than the typical chunky '59 profile. The neck is super comfortable & plays like a dream anywhere on the fretboard. The guitar is very light weight, at just over 8lbs & is exceptionally resonant! The double humbuckers sound incredible & are very dynamic, offering rich, creamy tones. Fully inspected & professionally set up with fresh strings, so it's ready to perform straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: Marvelous condition - very clean & still like new with only some mild surface scratches.
Neck: 1960 V2 neck profile made from one piece of mahogany. Cream binding with tortoise side-dots. Rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl trapezoid inlays. Frets are clean with no wear. Kluson Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works perfectly.
Body: One-piece, solid mahogany body with a stunning flame maple top under a Cherry Tea Burst finish & cream binding. Stopbar tailpiece & ABR-1 bridge with nickel hardware. Single-ply cream pickguard & jackplate. Guitar weighs 8 lbs 3.2 oz.
Electronics: Dual humbuckers with cream bezels & 3-way toggle switch. Dual volume & tone controls with gold "top hat" knobs. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Original hardshell case included along with COA & accessories.
