This guitar is in very good condition, and comes with a hardshell case. åÊIt has been gigged before, which is why I've rated it very good instead of excellent or mint. åÊThere are a few dings from its old life, one you can see on the edge towards the camera in the first two pictures, plus one on the back in the bottom center. åÊNothing affects playability, and overall it still is gorgeous.
Pulled from one of the few remaining pieces of Doug Kauer's private stash of solid, one piece, HEAVILY figured Redwood this Arcturus glows like it's on fire. Light, balanced, bell like tone Redwood is our favorite Arcturus body wood. Is it heavy NO WAY. What's it sound like? Like Spruce and Pine had a baby that was delivered by a flying Unicorn from the depths of Narnia whilst being ridden by a laser beam shooting TacoCatå¨. Seriously, it's incredible. Huge and dynamic sounding, a bit of compression but great sustain and balance.
