Height of the string from the 12th Fret- Treble 1.5mm - Bass 2mm Structural Condition: No concerns or issues to note A single-ply, eight-screw pickguard holds the staggered-pole single-coil pickups. Hardware Condition: Fully functional with light signs of wear - there is no tremolo arm with the guitar although this is a relatively inexpensive part to acquire. Truss Rod Condition: Fully functional & can be adjusted The frets are playable but any future work would warrant a re-fret. I believe these to be the original frets but there are limitations on future work. The frets are quite low, showing considerable wear. The lacquer to the fretboard sides appears to have worn and there is an indent to the treble side, first fret, on the fingerboard, this does not affect playability for my personal technique.īody: The listing pictures show the overall aesthetic of the guitar. Neck: Light finish indents are noticeable under brighter lighting, these do not significantly detract from playability. Indents and scuff markings are visible mainly to the sides and top edge. Headstock: Visible signs of ageing can be seen on the listing pictures which highlight the most noticeable imperfections. A 5-way switch gives loads of tonal versatility, with the tone pots being wired traditionally - giving you dedicated tones to the neck and middle pickups, with the bridge bypassing the tone for full on spank and twang, truly a springy sound.Ĭontrols - Master volume, dual tones, 5-way blade switch The single coils sound crisp and clear, with a warm low end, an open midrange, along with crisp and bell-like highs. Traditional ‘S’ body contours feel familiar, paying tribute to the iconic guitars of the 1950s. The gloss neck plays well, with a comfortable ‘C’ profile that fits snugly in the hand, with the nut feeling fairly narrow and the vintage accurate fingerboard radius giving very easy fretting. Built in Japan in 1983 this guitar features a Maple neck and fingerboard, 21 frets, a vintage accurate 7.25” fingerboard radius, along with a trio of single coil pickups, wired to a master volume, dual tones and a 5-way blade switch.
