LIKE NEW. The guitar has obviously been played very little and has remained in pristine condition. Apart from some minimal pick scratches on the pickguard, there are no cosmetic issues with the instrument, not even dust or fingerdirt. Technically, the guitar is flawless anyway. The hardware and the electronics are fine, the frets have about 95% life left. Furthermore, the instrument has been professionally set up by our guitar technicians, and carefully checked for proper function and playability by our product experts, to ensure its perfect working order.

Simply loosen the thumbwheel located on the back, feed the string through the post, lock the thumbwheel tight, cut off the remaining string, tune up and you’re finished – better tuning stability and no more restringing nightmares.
