Wide nut, OP30 preamp, in outstanding condition, even the case is mint. Neck is a little out of whack needs a tiny adjusting.
See USPS and Parcelforce can ship guitars with damaging them, though this case must have helped, it's incredible. Shipping was just $90 :)
It's VERY loud and like a mini 1537! More BIG pics to follow. Time for laxative, canauba, polish and exilirs.
Am I happy? Hell yes. This is a keeper. |

Location: Brighty in Blighty | The action is much higher than how I like it and no shims to remove. So it might just have to go! |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Just have a local luthier route the bottom of the saddle slot a bit. It's an easy fix as long as you still have enough break angle. |

Location: Brighty in Blighty | Thanks, my god, that thing has shredded my 1st finger callus.
I think a little visit to the doctor (for the guitar that is) and some 10s might be the remedy.
It's a lovely little fellow and fun to play. |

And yes, they're fun to play!  |
