VANZANDT STV-R2 CTM-Neck Type-4Shape Black [SN 9781] (11/11)

Circa 2024y VanZandt STV Series STV-2 Black Neck Plate S/N 9781

VanZandt STV-R2 made in 2024 is now in stock. This may be very rare because it is arranged and adopted from a reference example of up-charge option custom neck. The details of this guitar are Type 4 shape with thick U-shaped grip and 210R flat-applied rose fretboard, so big-handed players in Europe and the United States may be satisfied with its responsiveness. (Also, the response may be good... This is my personal opinion.)

As for the exterior condition, it has VanZandt's unique N.C. lacquer finish, so there are a few minor scratches and polishing marks that can be counted, as well as scratches that may have been caused by the zipper of the attached gig case or the hard inner fabric, but since the color is black, you may not notice them. You may notice them because of the black color. There is also a small chip on the paint film near the first string side of the body neck pocket, but it has been touched up and is not noticeable.
The condition of the instrument has been checked and adjusted at our repair center, and other parts of the instrument have been inspected and adjusted as well.
The overall condition of the instrument is clean, with no signs of serious playing, as it was made in recent years and owned for less than one year. The condition is clean and no signs of serious play. (As we will be displaying and selling these in our store, there may be some handling flaws from display and trial playing, etc.)
