I am selling this item because I am organizing my equipment, which I purchased used. As shown in the photos, the screw on the back of the tuning peg is missing. However, the strings can still be properly tensioned. The preamp is made by Giraud and produces a rather dark sound. The original preamp is also included. Comes with the original hard case. No original pickguard. The certificate of authenticity was not included from the previous owner.
