The guitar is in great condition with with almost no fretwear. The pickguard is made out of brushed aluminum. It looks great (a perfect copy of the original contour) and it won't crack like the stock pickguards do. The guitar comes in its original hardcase. I've recently set up intonation on it using my Peterson
strobe tuner. The guitar looks and plays great. It's set up for custom light strings (9-60).
I'm a honest guy, so here are details about finish imperfections, etc.:
There are minor swirls near upper horns of the pickguard. You have to look up close to see them. They're really minor and can be polished off. There's a tiny superficial ding on the front of the guitar. It's not to the wood, and it's so small I couldn't even capture it with my camera. The spring cover is missing. Trem bar needs lubrication (I never use it anyway).
Nothing major, but I think you have a right to know what you're buying, anyway.

Buyer pays actual shipping charges. I can accept money orders, cashier checks and personal checks (personal checks must clear the bank before I ship the guitar).
