ALL SALES ARE FINAL - NO RETURNS
ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD IN AS-IS CONDITION
All of our instruments sold are in complete, working condition. This instrument was professionally inspected, repaired if necessary & given a pro set-up by one of our favorite luthiers/guitarist/composer/teacher & fantastic all around human being as well as the co-founder of April Mae & The June Bugs, Dave "Catfish" Fecca of Dave Fecca Guitar Repair located in Moorestown, NJ...so this axe is ready to rip!
CONDITION:
Instrument is in good to very good player grade condition, in our opinion. Our luthier gave this a full pro set-up and some restoration, including buffing and polishing the fretboard and tightening the tuners for smooth playability. Dave also adjusted the neck and action and set the intonation. Replaced and adjusted the "B" string saddle screw, and installed a new, replacement locking nut for the 3rd and 4th strings. He also cleaned all electronics, installed a white pickup switch tip, installed new replacement whammy bar and fully set the intonation, so this is ready to rip! Bridge and locking nut components are original OEM parts purchased through a secondary vendor for Aria and Kahler.
Cosmetically, the guitar has some play wear and natural relic'ing due to its age. While it does not affect the playability, there are some scratches on the finish of the guitar and the back, bottom, and the bottom/sides of the guitar are dinged up minimally. Please see the attached photos as an extension of our written description.
