This guitar has been tested and all electronics are in working order.

Cosmetic finish cracks on both sides of nut and area of neck pocket. No structural problems.

My focus was using it to create a piece of art; I consider this essentially a working, playable piece of art. It is currently showing in my St. Louis art gallery, 31art gallery.

The overall body, the area of natural is the factory finish, the other areas were painted by me personally.

The portions of the guitar that I painted are no longer factory finish and therefore would not hold up to the same protection as a factory finish. I used spray paints and oil based paints. The paints hold up great to general playing/use, but is more susceptible to scratching than a factory finish. It won't rub off and can be cleaned with a light cleaner, like Windex. No clear coat has been applied.

New set of regular slinky strings. I have the action set up at 3/32 to 2/32 at 12. Have the pickups set up at 3/32. Oiled fretboard. Adjusted truss rod. Sounds great. Ready to play!!!
