1991 Patrick Eggle Berlin ProExtremely rare early modelMahogany bodyMahogany neckHighly flamed thick maple bookmatched topEbony 24 fret FretboardAbalone position DotsSingle position dot on 24th fretSmall neck heelFlamed maple veneer to headstockNo VoluteSeymour Duncan pickups with coil tapsSperzel locking tunersWilkinson Trem with original locking armOriginal frets in excellent condition barely wornThe rear of the guitar has marks and nicks around the edges from years of playing but the top / front is in excellent condition. The amber burst has the most amazing flameThe early models suffered from brittle lacquer, you can see this most prominently on the edge of the neck, it is just cosmetic and not structural. As I said there are a few chips and nicks out of the lacquer to the rear and on the headstock but the front has escaped relatively unscathed One of the last Eggle Berlin Pros to have been hand made by the man himself.Quite an amazing playing and sounding quitar with awesome woods and construction, the lacquer and chips are the only things that let it down.It's a players guitar, a serious players guitar that has been well loved and played. You could have it refinished, but to be honest I'd keep it the way it is, it's 26 years old now, why hide the heritage and provenance.Comes in a nice hard shell caseCollection preferred so you can see it, from South Bristol, but I can post via overnight courier.If you have any questions please ask !
