Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
What a steal! We were blown away by the sound, feel, and quality this thinline has to offer even compared to much pricier models! The chambered center block design ensures it sounds clear and loud while the double cutaway gives you access to the upper range of the neck. This is one versatile guitar and at this price point, its proving hard for any of us to pass it up!
