This guitar was purchased new in 1995. It has never been taken outside and has only been used at home. It was stored in a hard case for over 10 years. While there is some light rust on the screws and around the pickups, the body is in very good condition, with only minor scratches and small dings. Considering its age, I think it's in pretty good shape. The neck is straight, and there is very little fret wear. I connected it to an amplifier and checked the sound, and there were no issues such as noise. Despite being stored for many years, I feel it's a guitar in good condition. Specs: Body: Mahogany Neck: Mahogany Pickguard: Large type Bridge: Tune-O-Matic Color: Black (white pickguard) It has the sharp attack and excellent clarity characteristic of a Flying V. It responds quickly to both chords and single notes, and it feels great to play. It has the thick mid-range and soft sustain unique to a mahogany body, and the core of the sound remains even when distorted, making it easy to handle. It can be used for a wide range of genres, including rock and hard rock, and it's also easy to add expression even with clean tones. The hard case is also in good condition. For safe transportation, it will be shipped with cardboard and cushioning material over the case. *An effects pedal was placed in the case during the photo shoot to show the storage space inside the hard case, but it is not included in this listing.
