This one is in excellent condition - the only item that needs mentioning is some blush in the finish at the back of the neck behind the headstock. No dings, dents, nicks or scratches. Hardshell case included - not original though.

Body Shape: NEX C/A
Rosette: Abalone & Pearl, Rare Woods - Sun and Moon theme
Top: Selected Solid Spruce
Inlays: Mother-of-pearl
Back: Rio Grande Palisandro
Sides: Rio Grande Palisandro
Fingerboard: Ebony with Moon Phases Inlays
Electronics: Accuracoustic Preamp

It is a beautiful guitar - I just don't play it enough.

The price is $950 shipped in the continental USA. I will ship internationally at additional cost.

These pictures were taken by the person I acquired the guitar from. I can get some other shots if required:

Make me a reasonable offer!

Some more information:

- mahogany neck
- nut width - 1 5/8" (the book says 1 9/16" - but it measured 1 5/8")
- bone nut
- glossy finish
- palathetic pickup
- rosewood bridge and fretboard
- gloss poly finish
- gold tuners with amber pearloid buttons - height adjustable

It's a very sweet sounding guitar.

I just went over it again and there are two very small dings in the top finish - smaller than the tip of a pencil and definitely not photographable. I could only see them by holding the guitar in the sunlight at an angle.

I've played a couple of the Sun/Moon Ltd's and I thought they were both very nice guitars. Great feel and very nice sound. Good luck, Mike - tough market right now but that's a great git. It'll go sometime...

Thanks Wease. Looks like it's gotta go to the bay soon. Not too many nibbles.

Glad it went for you Mike but sure wish it were coming in this direction.

(I find myself saying that more and more these days...)
