Builders Edition 517ce in immaculate condition. V-class bracing.
Like-new condition guitar and figured brown leather case. This has been a great guitar for me - just doesn’t get enough play. Time to thin out the collection.
Always stored in case with humidipaks. Smoke free home. Just like the guitar itself, the case is immaculate - hasn’t ever left the home.
