Description
Cosmetic Condition: Excellent condition overall with just a few chips worth mentioning - one in the top, lower bout bass side, near the binding; one on the treble side of the neck heel; and one in the back of the headstock near the top. These chips are purely superficial do not affect playability or sound quality. The rest of the guitar is fairly clean, with some minor nicks & dings; surface scratches & a small lacquer crack in the treble side waist. The guitar has been professionally set up by us with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds great! Unlike most vintage J-160E models this modern one features a solid top, so the sound is warm & rich with beautiful sustain & well-balanced.
Neck: Nicely rounded & very comfortable mahogany neck with cream binding. Beautiful, dark rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl trapezoid inlays. Frets are in near-perfect condition with hardly any wear. Grover Rotomatic tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 3/4" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Round shoulder dreadnought with bound top & back. Solid spruce top in a gorgeous sunburst finish. Rosewood bridge with cream end pins & compensated saddle. Tortoise pickguard with 3-ply rosette. Solid mahogany back & sides.
Pickup: P-90 single coil neck pickup - 7.94K ohms. Master volume & tone controls with gold "top hat" knobs. The volume knob has a small chip in the top rim. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Original hardshell case included.
