I've done this several times, but for financial reasons, this time it's for real.

This is a pristine Elrick Platinum 6. Rob's stuff is insane, and an insane deal. Lightweight, very comfortable, sleek, fast neck, EXTREMELY low action. Here are the spec's:

~ Ash body
~ Walnut center block
~ 3 piece maple neck through body
~ Bubinga board
~ 24 medium frets
~ Burl, figured maple top
~ Bart NTMB pre
~ Aero single coil J's
~ Dunlop straplocks
~ 35 in scale
~ Approx. 9.4 lbs

The tone of this beast is hard to explain - it's extremely punchy, but it's got sustain for a month. The note definition is fantastic, not muddy at all, and the bubinga board provides a lot of warmth, but can still be nice and snappy for slapping. Exactly what a boutique, exotic 6 should be!

Fresh set-up, strings, intonation, etc... Elrick Ultralight case, form-fitted. $2200, shipped in the continental US only, OBO. Not looking for ANY TRADES, thanks!

Pictures don't do it justice, but...

this bad boy should be an 2008. look at the serial number inside the cavity. either the first 2 or last 2 is the year.

i bought it in 08 and i swore it said that inside. i could be mistaken. but i am pretty sure it is an 08.
