After bringing the guitar in for adjustments last week, (3-6-19) I discovered the neck has a slight bow back, the truss rod is loose and it can't be adjusted , the string height at the 12th fret is slightly high. So I am selling it as is described, and lowering the price considerably, If anyone is intrested, you can have the neck repaired by releveling it. Or you can bring it to Jesselli  in Northport long island for repair.
The guitar is worth an easy 7K. 

This guitar was designed and hand crafted by Joseph Jesselli in 1980. Serial #002, it is one of his early creations. It features a hollow body to give greater depth to the sound. The body is made from exhibition grade Benge with curly and flame grain figure. It has a hand-made ebony bridge. The neck is fiddle- back maple with mother of pearl inlay and white binding. The back plate is a hand carved ribbon pattern. It is truely a work of art and a must have for any collector.
Original owner-Like new condition-All paper work from Jesselli. Seymore Duncan pickups-Hard shell case included.
For more info on Jesselli, check him out on Wikipedia, the NY Times calls him "the Stradivari of Huntington, NY. He was the only apprentice to Jimmy D'Aquisto for 6 years. His guitars are owned by a number of great musicians including Keith Richards.
