LINDERT SKYLINER in very rare Green / Cream Sparkle c1998
Hand-built in the U.S.A. by the late lamented eccentric Charles Lindert somewhere in the mid-late 90s.
There's a handwritten sticker on the neck plate dated 1998. I have a small collection of Linderts and others have this type of sticker. This is about as close as it gets to a date/serial on a Lindert.
All original. Condition is very good all round and the fret wear is negligible.
Lindert offered multiple pickup configurations with most models. This one has the dual humbucker variation. It offers a very wide range of tones.
Plays beautifully with brand new medium strings.
Comes with a hard case.
If you are reading this I am sure you know a little of what makes Lindert guitars unique but here goes:
Specs:
Body: 3-piece mdf semi-hollow frame w/Green & Cream texture finish
Top: Lindert's unique tweed cloth / fretwork panel (based on 1930s radio sets)
Neck: Patented 'Escape Velocity' maple neck w/distinctive 'Thumbs-up' Headstock
Fretboard: Slab rosewood
Scale: 25.5"
Controls: Vintage-style 'Chicken head' knobs 1T + 1V w/3-way toggle selector
Pickups: Dual humbucking

A Note On Shipping:
We want you to be fully satisfied with everything - from the item itself (naturally!) through the shipping, packaging, communication etc.
Of course there is nothing we can do about customs duty, local taxes etc at your end. But we can keep the overall price as competitive as is decently possible.
The Japan post office service (EMS) is reliable and efficient but shipping costs from Japan to Europe or the states are unavoidably expensive.
For this reason none of the shipping costs we quote reflect the actual price we have to pay. We are more than willing to take a hit on that to make things as attractive for you as possible.

Vintage Instruments & Equipment
Shipping by air plus climatic changes can affect how a guitar is set up - no matter how well it is packed. Consequently there is no guarantee that an instrument arrives with exactly the same set up as stated. After a period of acclimatisation, you may still need to make any adjustments at your own expense.
