This is in generally really good shape, with a few small marks to the body.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen we picked it up it had a pretty nasty chip out of the finish on the front, which due to the paint type was pretty much irreparable. We thought a racing stripe could be a fun way to getting it looking good again and enlisted the help of Barringtone Relics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e to do the job. The stripe has been applied and relacquered over which looks and feel great. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThere are some slight imperfections and swirl marks due to the process of taking the lacquer right back and building it back up, without going down to the impossible to fix paint below! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere are some very slight textural differences at a couple of points where the new lacquer meets the old clear coat (away from the stripe). These are very nitpicky points that we are highlighting, as you can tell from the pictures it has turned out superb. As usual Jess has had her imperfection goggles on and made everything look as rough as can be, in order to be as transparent as we can :)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAll pre-owned guitars are set for click and collect only by default.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eIf you would like us to ship a guitar to you, please send us an email with your delivery address and we can send over a quote for shipping and provide more information regarding the items condition \u0026amp; playability, to ensure that you're happy before purchase.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDue to current regulations we \u003cstrong\u003ecannot ship to the US or EU.\u003c\/strong\u003e If you're from anywhere else in the world please get in touch with us and we can see what we can do. \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a pre-owned instrument and may show signs of use.
