3 PIECE KOA NECK THRU BODY,WITH PURPLE HEART STRIPES, LOOKS LIKE MACASSAR EBONY FRETBOARD, NEW FRETS WITH A TON OF PLAY LEFT, THEY ARE NEW. ALL THE SWITCHES COMBINE FOR 9 DIFFERENT SOUNDS, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT PICKUPS THESE ARE BUT I PUT NEW BLACK PLASTIC ON THE SINGLES..IT HAD BEEN COVERED WITH URETHANE, BUT I STRIPPED IT TO RETURN IT TO ITS ORIGINAL TUNG OIL RUBBED FINISHED..HAS A FULLY FUNCTIONAL KAHLER 2700 FLOYD ROSE WITH ALL OF THE PEICES FOR IT. THE ONLY THING I HAVENT GOTTEN IS A PEAVEY TRUSS ROD COVER..HAS A BLACK HARD CASE THATS PROBABLY THE ORIGINAL ALSO.
I PERSONALLY CALLED PEAVEY TO TRY TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS MODEL..AND ALL THEY KNOWNIS THAT IT WAS MADE BY ONE OF THEIR LUTHIERS IN THE MIDDLE TO LATE 80'S. PROBABLY 1987..THEY SAID HE HAD RETIRED LONG AGO..THEY MADE ABOUT 300 KOA BASSES, BUT VERY FEW GUITARS..THIS GUITAR HAS NO SERIAL NUMBER WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE VERY 1ST ONE, THE PROTOTYPE!!! ALL IT HAS IS A PATENT APPLIED FOR NUMBER THAT I LEFT UNDER THE URETHANE FOR PROOF OF WHAT IT IS..THIS THING HAS SOME OF THE MOST...HOW CAN I PUT IT...IT JUST SINGS, RESONATES,AND FLIP A SWITCH OUT OF PHASE AND ITS ROCKIN HIGH GAIN..THE OTHER 2 SWITCHES ARE ON AND OFF SWITCHES...IT HAS A FEW MINOR DINGS AND SCRATCHES FOR BEING 30 YEARS PLUS AND SO RARE...BUT WOW!!! I WAS THINKING ABOUT NEW PICKUPS, BUT THESE SOUND GREAT..WITH A NEWER SET, ITS LIMITLESS AND A BEAUTIFUL, COMFORTABLE GUITAR. THE FRETBOARD RADIUS IS ABOUT 12.
JUST AN OUTSTANDING GUITAR ALL AROUND..WITH THE HARDSHELL CASE..THE PICTHRES DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE..WITH TINY KNICKS ON THE FRETBOARD, AND OPEN GRAIN EVERYWHERE, IT IS REALLY SOMETHING THAT WILL CONTINUE TO ROCK FOR ALONG TIME TO COME. THE NECK HAD A TINY TWIST BARELY VISIBLE THAT STRAIGHTENED OUT WITH THE NEW FRETS,AND SHIMMED A HAIR FOR A VERY LOW ACTION THE 11TH FRET IS A LITTLE FLAT, BUT IM LEAVING IT JUST LIKE IT IS..IT PLAYS GREAT ONCE YOU LEARN HOW TO WORK THE FLOYD ROSE..THIS TBING HAS A TON OF PARTS FOR VERY FINE ADJUSTMENTS..
YOU WILL PROBABLY NEVER SEE ANOTHER ONE OF THESE This is on sale in other locations.
