This is a nice “player grade” guitar, that comes from its original owner, that sadly did a few modifications in the 80s, such as:
- jaguar controls cut into the wood and guard
- when he decided to come back to the original configuration he had the switches holes filled and refinished the guitar (born fiesta red from the factory) in White
- he also slimmed down the back of the neck (it’s really slim in first 1-5 frets) and a luthier had to restore the mess he did with a almost invisible maple insert.
The good: the guitar sounds amazing, has 3 originals “black bottoms” pickups, original decal and headstock finish, still the original frets and bone nut.
This is a great project since the guitar was born fiesta red at the factory and now the finish has been beautifully restored by our Master Luthier Romano Burini.
