Only been gigged a few times (fingerstyle only - no picks or plectrums) it is in exceptional condition, devoid of scratches dings or blemish. Photo slideshow on our website at:

Anything in the photos that might look a little odd is only reflections which are unavoidable on the super gloss finish - it took us three days of trial and error to get photos with as few reflections as possible.

Guess we're being over-optimistic...

So price reduction to half what we bought it for - now down to £3,000 (GB pounds) + shipping.

Is that better?
