It is in excellent condition with just one minor ding to the back just above the strap button on the bottom edge (see photo). It plays well and sounds great. Yours for £450. Pick up only, or I can deliver in the Greater Manchester / north Cheshire area. Willing to travel a bit to help a sale. I'm sorry but I don't have a case / box for it, so trusting it to a courier is not something I want to risk. Top

I just used the www.guitardaterproject.org website and got Fuji-gen. It's a shame you're in London. I do get down there with work sometimes but nothing planned soon, sorry. If you have a hard case you could send via courier then I can send it back with the guitar? I'll absorb the shipping for my leg of the journey. Top

Thanks for the offer it is a peach of a guitar but my attention has now turned to an American Series. Good luck with your sale. Last edited: Jul 24, 2015 06:56:03 Top

That's only if you're comfortable with shipping the guitar at all, and with buying a guitar you haven't played before, of course. But you'll want a case for the guitar, anyway. Just in case nobody thought of it already. — Of course it's alive, you cannot make music with dead Muppahones! -- Marvin Suggs Top
