I’ve owned this guitar for about a year, and I’ve only put a couple of hours into playing it(too many other guitars). I had it stripped of the electronics as it did not come with the originals, and I wanted the set that I had installed for another guitar(Fishman Modern). When it was completely assembled everything worked, and it had a professional setup which includes the frets as well. I also had the Fishman universal battery pack installed, which is why the control plate has a hole, and there is a tiny amount of wood that needed to be routed, so if you wanted to use actives, the battery pack(not included) would also work with Emgs, SDs, ect. The previous owner also swapped out the original bridge/stop tail and inserts/studs, but they didn’t do the best job, so there is some cosmetic wear around both stop-tail inserts that I have highlighted. At first I couldn’t understand why they would, but the bridge is magnetic to it’s studs, and the stop tail locks into it’s studs, so if you remove the strings, neither will fall off. The guitar also has cosmetic wear(scratches, checking, dings etc.), but nothing serious that effects functionality(I have more photos, but I’m limited to 25 on here, so please ask). I recently replaced hardware on my ‘70s Gibson Flying V with gold hardware, so I am including the chrome stop tail/bridge and studs with this guitar, but you’ll need to source separate inserts as the installed inserts have a different thread count. The guitar also comes with two strap buttons(no protective washers), two Gibson pots, 3 knobs, and the original Gibson hard case. Local pickup and offers are always an option, but shipping is only available to the lower 48 states within the United States. I am also happy to answer/address any questions/concerns, so please ask at anytime. Thank you for your time!

*Even though it is shown in the photos, I wanted to clarify that the control plate doesn’t come with any screws. Somehow they got lost during the disassembly, but standard pick guard screws will work.*
