This guitar has about 800 hours of fingerstyle playing time – which means it has really opened up (improved clarity and sustain since I received it). The only sign of all that play is some minor fret bar wear on the 1st couple of frets of the high E and B strings. There is absolutely NO string buzz. The condition is immaculate, with only a couple of light surface flaws from stringing (scratches too light to photograph). I never put the pickguard on since I have never used picks. This guitar has never left the house. Smoke-free. Always in the humidity-controlled case when not playing.

The original mp3 files and photos are still available at the Guitar Gallery website under the "SOLD" category.
