Includes brand new hard-shell case (complete with keys) as well as case candy. Your purchase is double boxed, carefully packed and fully insured for your protection and peace of mind. This is a custom, domestically made piece and hardly your partscaster.
For outside the continental USA, import fees, tariffs, taxes, VAT and the like are the responsibility of the buyer. Please make note of such before your purchase.
(*) Final set-up may be required, whether the nut was factory installed or by myself. Please keep this in mind when purchasing, as each player is different in terms of action, relief, and set-up. This particular piece was purposely left on the higher side, as I have always preferred a higher action for resonance, string bending without bottoming out with fret-buzz and more. The other benefit, mind you, is leaving enough meat on this bone nut to work with, should one desire lowering the action to suit their own needs. Please keep this in mind when purchasing, as I am not responsible for final set-up based on a buyers/player’s preferences.
(**) Oil finishes on necks, while highly popular and desirable, often do not conform to being covered by any manufacturer. This isn’t meant to scare or dissuade prospective buyers as much as inform them.
