Fantastic guitar in excellent overall condition, plays beautifully and sounds awesome. I bought this guitar from renowned Louisiana musician and teacher Jonno Frishberg (YouTube Katie &Jonno), my second guitar from his collection and I can tell you he only buys outstanding instruments and has his guitars meticulously set up. This one was set up by Lafayette luthier Jim McGee, who custom carved a new bone nut and saddle, installed upgraded Kluson tuners and, installed the performing swivel strap peg to the rear, and who also removed the piezo strip from under the saddle for optimal contact with the woods (Jonno told me believes firmly in using a mic for the best sound, both recording and live). The original tuners, saddle and nut will be included in the case, and the piezo is in the guitar body and can easily be reinstalled under the saddle next time you restring if you wish. The guitar has a few swirlies and small nicks as up up you would expect of a 20 year old professional musician‘s guitar, and one significant “crazing”/check as pictured, but otherwise it’s been meticulously cared for, always case-kept, and will not disappoint. Comes with original case as pictured, a few scratches and dings here and there but also overal in excellent or at least very good shape and keeps the guitar snug and safe. Fresh-ish John Pearce 12’s on it, which is the string set Jonno loves and recommends….

I've put what I think are a decent assortment of photos but I'm happy to answer any questions AND send you as many photos as you want.

Shipping costs are on the rise, and my shipping price covers box and materials, AND Reverb's insurance which will run around $50 on this guitar.  It will be packaged well in an appropriate box, with at least an extra layer of cardboard around it (where possible) in addition to bubble, foam, etc as necessary to protect while in transit. 

Please note that I also check shipping prices, fully insured, through Shipnerd and reserve the right to ship through them if Reverb rates seem inordinately high.  They invariably partner with UPS just like reverb, and tracking is still provided through reverb, but also through Shipnerd and the carrier.

Also, I list all my for sale items across multiple platforms (Facebook Marketplace, gear page, a few bulletin boards, and by word of mouth among my guitar buddies and at jams). Obviously, my Louisiana peeps have an advantage buying locally, but Reverb is an amazing marketplace and I price my items competitively. I entertain reasonable offers and try as hard as I can to be a straight shooter and describe items and answer questions accurately and honestly. If you're watching this guitar and it suddenly vanishes, I may have temporarily deleted the listing if I've agreed to show the guitar to someone locally in the immediate future. Usually someone willing to drive to Baton Rouge to see gear is legitimately prepared to buy but if such a deal fall through I’ll reactivate the listing and it should come up again in your follow list.

Thanks for looking,

 And please read my feedback, I try hard to be fair and honest in my descriptions, pricing and dealinigs
