Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Built in Scotland in 2015 by a small luthier ( I dont know much about him) and was his personal guitar until earlier this year when I got it. BY FAR the best LP I have ever played. Sounds huge and stays in tune even with big bends, not a single buzzy fret anywhere and frets are perfectly smooth and play like butter. The unlacquered neck is incredible.
Modifications (if any): Full custom. Spec list is below in full.
Accessories (hardshell case etc): fitted hard case
Location (City,State or City,Country): Hampshire UK
International OK? : At buyers risk/cost, sure.
Contact Info (No Phone #s): PM here
References (eBay or other forum userid): Been a member since 2007 with plenty of purchases. Timatora on ebay
Price (include currency and if firm/obo): £2250 + free UK shipping. Overseas buyers pay shipping (let me know where and I'll find some quotes)
Open to offers. Selling to purchase a J custom from another member here 😁

Full specs:

1 piece old Honduran Mahogany body with super figured solid flame maple top.
1 piece quarter sawn old Honduran mahogany neck with bound dark Indian rosewood fretboard and celluloid inlays.

Condition: It has that "VOS" look and feel, and very early stages of finish checking starting to appear. Only noticeable up close but looks lovely. Few ware marks on the back of the body around the edges but back of the neck is perfect. Headstock is great condition with no chips/dents.
