I have professionally played this fantastic J-180 and received countless compliments on it's sound and looks. What stands out initially are those double Everly Brothers type tortoise pickguards! It has wonderful top finish checking and has darkened nicely, no dings or cracks, no fretboard divots, newly crowned and dress frets, straight neck and complete setup.

These don't come up for sale often and there's a reason for that...

thank you for looking.

No Trades please.
