2021 BMG Brian May Super Red Special 

SETUP & INSPECTED BY OUR TECH TEAM

All of our guitars come with a FREE professional setup to a comfortable action as specified by that instrument’s manufacturer. Our setups always include inspection of (and necessary adjustment to): action, intonation, tremolo angle, truss rod, frets, nut, bridge, and more. We can accommodate special setup requests - additional charges and/or shipping delays of 1-2 business days could occur.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED

After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.

SPECS

Weight: 7.2 lbs 

Case Details: Original Hardshell Case

Cosmetic Condition: Very good with some scratching on the plastics/pick guard and some areas of scratching on the back as well.  

Tech Notes: Guitar, Hardware, and Electronics were cleaned/tested and are functioning appropriately. Setup with 10" neck relief and medium/low action. Fretboard cleaned and frets polished. We found this guitar played best setup with 10 gauge strings. These with the smaller 24" scale length is very easy to play. Very minimal fret wear on this piece. There is some small wear at the zero fret, not uncommon with a guitar in similar condition, but it doesn't affect the playability with instrument. Plays great throughout the entire fretboard with consistent intonation and even tremolo response. Large neck, however doesn't feel cumbersome/hard to play. 

Mods or Repairs: The original brass block that went underneath the saddles was missing from the guitar. We used metal shims cut to size of each saddle in order to have the ability to individually adjust each string height independently. We added some additional shims in the case as needed for setups in the future.
