Description
What makes this guitar special: A super cool Deluxe with a great vintage vibe to it. This guitar was somebody's favorite as evidenced by the good honest play wear throughout the guitar. A perfectly shaped neck & a pair of killer sound mini humbuckers make the guitar a real joy to play. Warm, rich tone with wonderful sustain. A pro set up is included so the guitar is guaranteed to play great straight out of the case.
