"JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO GO BACK IN THE STUDIO" WE ARE GOING TO NEED A BIGGER CASE! UP FOR BIDS IS A VERY RARE BIRD INDEED AND A MUST IF YOU COLLECT RARE VINTAGE CUSTOM USA GUITARS. I AM SELLING MY HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE VINTAGE EARLY 80'S ( 1980-1981 ) O'HAGAN SHARK DELUXE. THIS IS IN THE BLACK GLOSS FINISH AND HAS THE UPGRADED GOLD HARDWARE. THIS BEAUTY WAS HAND MADE IN THE USA BY JERRY O'HAGAN A FORMER CLARINETIST AND MUSIC TEACHER THAT DECIDED TO OPEN HIS OWN COMPANY. HE OPENED IT IN 1979 AND THE SHARK WAS HIS FIRST GUITAR TO BE PRODUCED. HE WAS ONLY IN BUSINESS FOR 6 YEARS AND CLOSED IN 1985 AND PRODUCED ONLY 3000 GUITARS TOTAL. THERE REALLY ARE NOT MANY OF HIS GUITARS OUT THERE AND MOST ARE IN COLLECTIONS NOT FOR SALE. THESE HAVE AN EXPLORER STYLE TO THEM BUT ARE WAY MORE COMFORTABLE TO PLAY SITTING DOWN. THIS IS ONE OF THE EARLIER MODELS I BELIEVE IT IS A 1980 BUT IF I AM WRONG PLEASE CORRECT ME SO I CAN FIX THE LISTING.THESE WERE ALL CUSTOM DONE BY HAND AND THE BODIES WERE MADE OF MAPLE/WALNUT WITH THE NECK THRU CONSTRUCTION. THESE ONLY CAME IN NATURAL OR BLACK AND THE GOLD HARDWARE WAS A $100 UPGRADE BACK THEN WOW! THE FRET BOARDS ARE MADE OF INDIAN OR BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD AND CAME WITH SCHALLER HARDWARE. I DO BELIEVE THIS HAS DIMARZIO OR SCHALLER HUMBUCKERS IN IT AND IT SOUNDS GREAT. I AM NOT SURE HOW MANY WERE MADE BUT NOT MANY MAYBE 100 OR SO I WAS TOLD. THIS GUITAR WAS A PLAYERS GUITAR! SO IF YOU LOOKING FOR A MINT COLLECTORS GUITAR JUST TO HANG ON THE WALL TO LOOK AT THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. THIS CAN BE PUT AWAY IN SOMEONES COLLECTION AND THEY HAVE THE OPTION TO PLAY IT IF THEY WANT WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT DINGING IT OR PUTTING FINGER PRINTS ON IT. AS I SAID THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED BUT NOT ABUSED AND DOES SHOW NORMAL WEAR.IT HAS MARKS,DINGS,SCRATCHES,PICK MARKS AND NORMAL STUFF. IT ALSO SHOWS WEAR ON THE GOLD HARDWARE AND HAS A WORN SPOT SEEN IN THE PICTURES WERE A STRAP RUBBED ON IT. IT STILL LOOKS GOOD AND THE ORIGINAL FINISH STILL SHINES. I DO BELIEVE IT WOULD LOOK BETTER IF A PRO CLEANED AND BUFFED THE FINISH. THERE ARE NO BREAKS OR REPAIRS AND THE FRETS LOOKS GOOD. JUST AN AWESOME GUITAR THAT I HATE TO PART WITH BECAUSE I WILL PROBABLY NEVER SEE ANOTHER ONE AGAIN. I DO NEED SOME MAJOR REPAIRS DONE TO MY HOUSE BECAUSE OF A WATER LEAK AND NEED FUNDS. IT WILL COME WITH THE O'HAGAN CATALOG AND PRICE & PARTS LIST AND WILL BE SHIPPED IN THE NEW GATOR SOFT CASE.I PLAY GUITAR AND DRUMS AND HAVE A MASSIVE COLLECTION OF BOTH. I ALWAYS LOVE GETTING A NEW TOY AND WOULD BE OPEN TO ANY AND ALL IDEAS YOU MAY HAVE "OPEN TO ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING"PAY-PAL ACCEPTED OPEN TO OTHER PAYMENTS ALSOUSA SHIPPING PREFERREDSHIPPING PRICE IS FOR CONT 48 ONLY AND "WILL BE THE SAME FOR ALL"REMEMBER THIS!!!!AS-IS AUCTION,NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS!
