This guitar is really hard to come by these days,I bought this new(paid in December) and received it from Japan in late january....tuned and played once,then it went back in its case...Time and arthritis have prevented me using this...as well as my other guitars.So,sadly I will sell this oneBy the time postage and customs had finished with me this guitar had cost me a couple of quid short of 1500.00I am selling her for anything over 800She is brand new,have a look on e bay and google to see if you can find one,then see what they will cost.More about herThe previous model was played by Dave Kushner from Velvet Revolver...available in metallic blue or green only,the top model is this one,available in Pink Blue or Grey,TBH its a grey/brown,the curly maple cap is grey but the dished edge shows the mahogany bodyLighter than a less paul but with a monster tone,the neck joint is beautifully made and reminds me of the Washburn Nuno guitarFlat wide thin neck,large frets 22 of them,top quality Gotoh machineheads,locking trem with push in bar.The Sustainer system....used by Vai amongst many others,this is actually a pickup as well as an electronic harmonizer system,with no engagment the pickup is similar to an EMG 60There are two micro toggles for the system,the one nearest the volume control is the sustainer on/off switch,if the pickup selector is in the neck position and you switch the micro toggle,the system switches to the bridge pickup...as it acts as a 'driver' switch off and you revert to the neck position,there are three positions on the other micro toggleOne position simply sustains the note......for everthe other position turns the note to harmonics...and double harmonics!.its an incredible systemIf you choose not to use it then you have a top quality made in Japan seymour duncan equipped exotic and rare guitarSo....any questions...feel free to ask...800 is a giveaway,I have all the candy and the recipts and tax /import charge receiptsGot this far?....
