Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. The frets ends were sticking out and required rounding off and polishing. No further work was required.
Don't let the lower price of this guitar fool you, it's a monster player and sounds just as good if not better than some of its higher dollar compatriots! Wherever they're from, and no matter how they're placed, P90 pickups just sound perfect, and these are no exception. This guitar will take you anywhere from Tony Iommi style roar to the cleanest jazz licks! And, it's neither too small nor too big. Just right! Our luthier ensured the setup of this piece is spot-on, and it couldn't get better. And that metallic green, Broadway Jade finish is a looker! The hardtail bridge ensures rock solid stability, so there is none of the temperamental nature of similar, tremolo equipped pieces! This is a secret weapon: it just does the thing, and it sounds damn good doing it. Don't miss this one!
