This handmade custom guitar looks like it belongs on a heavy metal rig. A lightning bolt shape guitar in an ivory finish? It screams 1982! This beauty evokes images of Randy Rhoads on the back of a tour bus, blasting out licks from the built-in speaker of its custom-made hardcase with plush ochre interior.

Condition:

Some slight damage to the paint (see photos) but otherwise fantastic condition. Has obviously been very well looked after. Some scratches on the hardcase. Amp was serviced in 2021.

Incredibly loud when volume knob is cranked up. The power and crunch of the amp will likely suprise you with its power. Turned down low, the rig is capable of very clean tones. EQ on the hardcase is very versatile. Battery life is good and charges quickly. We may have to ship the battery to you seperately depending on your location.

Postage / Shipping / Import duty / Collection:

  • Postage within the UK is always included in the purchase price (unless otherwise stated in the ad)
  • We offer international shipping options for our customers and it is calculated automatically at checkout.
  • To ensure the safe delivery of your purchase, our gear is meticulously packed with acid-free paper, bubble wrap, parcelling chips, and sturdy double-walled boxes, protecting it from the shocks and knocks that shipments may encounter.
  • If desired, we can ship your purchase fully insured against damage and loss (please enquire for a quote).
  • Any additional charges, such as import duties, that may apply to your shipping address are the sole responsibility of the buyer.
  • For local buyers, we warmly welcome and encourage pickup, especially for high-end and fragile items.
  • If you suspect that the postage cost calculated at checkout is inaccurate, feel free to request a shipping quote for clarification, as shipping quotes may vary.

Returns Policy:

Your satisfaction is important to us. If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you have the option to return it to us within 14 days for a refund. Please note the following terms:

  • Original Postage Deduction: The original postage cost will be deducted from the refund amount (this also applies to UK customers).
  • Restocking Fee: A 5% restocking fee will be applied to the refund.

If you have any questions or need assistance with a return, please feel free to contact us.

Reserving Items:

To accommodate your needs, we gladly offer item reservations for a period of 30 days. To secure the reservation, a non-refundable deposit of 10% of the sale price is required. This deposit ensures that the item will be held exclusively for you during the reservation period. Should you decide to proceed with the purchase, the deposit will be applied towards the total amount. Please feel free to contact us for any inquiries or to arrange an item reservation.

Part-Exchanges and Trades:

We are open to considering part-exchange for high-end gear. However, it's important to note that as a business, we aim to turn a profit, and therefore, the value offered for part-exchange may not match what you could potentially receive by selling your gear privately. Nonetheless, part-exchange can often provide opportunities that budget-conscious buyers might not otherwise have. If you are interested in exploring part-exchange options, please don't hesitate to contact us for further details.

Gear Buy-Back:

We have a heartfelt attachment to the items we purchase and parting with any piece from our collection can be difficult. However, should you choose to sell any gear that was originally purchased from us at a later date, we will always be willing to consider buying it back (within reasonable terms). Feel free to reach out to us if you're interested in exploring the buy-back option or have any questions about the process.
