Description: Fender MIM Deluxe Tele - sunburst - 6/10 condition

This thing is well worn, but also full of life - it sounds excellent and plays like a good Tele should. There is an incredible resonance to it.

I'm pretty sure the tuners are from an EJ Strat, and I think the pickups, electronics, and saddles are all aftermarket, but I didn't do the mods, so I can't verify this.

There is a lot of wear in this one, so look at the pictures first. If you want an excellent, worn Tele, this is a safe bet.

Description: Schecter Jeff Loomis FR - red - 9.7/10 condition

As usual for these, this is a killer guitar. Huge tone, great neck, and the hardware is actually black instead of Cosmo.

There might be one or two very tiny, minor flaws, but nothing that stand out.

Description: LTD Hex-7 - 9.4/10 condition

Absolutely savage 7 string. This is Nergal's (from Behemoth) signature model. The neck is very playable, and the tone is similar to the Loomis, only with a bigger bottom end.

There are a few very tiny scuff marks here and there.

Description: Ibanez Prestige S-1620 - brown burst - 9.9/10 condition

The cleanest example of one of these that I've come across, and possibly the best playing and sounding S series that I've had. The neck on this guitar is absolutely ridiculous. The guitar just has this incredibly solid feeling to it as a whole.

If any flaws, they're in the form of very light surface scratches.

Description: 1978 Ibanez Iceman IC-100 - black - 6/10 condition

This one is a catch and a half - I didn't expect it to impressive at all, but it's, in fact, entirely badass. The tone is massive - leads are beautiful, and heavy rhythms are... heavy. The neck and fretwork on this guitar are worth the price of admission.

Naturally, being 35 years old, there are plenty of dings and scratches, sand a few chips, but really, nothing dramatic like you might expect.

Description: Carvin DC-747 - ruby red - 9/10 condition

Great 7 string all around. The stock pickups are actually completely satisfactory here, and the aesthetics of the guitar work perfectly.

The two black looking "dings" in the pictures are some really strange flaws in the clearcoat or paint, more so than actual chips. There's a couple of scratches and light swirling on it, but it's mostly clean. The worst issue is that one of the mini-toggles needs to be replaced.

Description: Mike Sherman Fanned Fret 7 string prototype - red - 9.6/10 condition

Purple heart, Walnut, and Maple for the neck and body, insanely figured Birdseye Maple for the fretboard and truss rod cover

This guitar is insane. I literally just got it, and will likely continue to play it if it doesn't move, but since I haven't had an ad up in a while, I figured I'd include this as well.

The tone is gorgeous. Nothing short of it. The woods are beautiful, the feel is perfectly solid, and the playability really leaves nothing to be desired.

Sherman told me that this was a prototype that he built (it's pictured on his website if you want to check it out). I've never played another one of his guitars, but now I'm mighty curious.

There isn't much in the way of actual flaws, but right by the volume knob and the low B tuner, there are light spots in the clearcoat. Not really sure what it's from.

Description: Suhr Modern - chili pepper red - 9.8/10 condition

Same as the Sherman in the sense that I'm pretty much including this in the ad because I might as well. No harm in keeping it, though, as it's a pretty much perfect shredder. These speak for theirselves. This is the biggest sounding Suhr I've owned.

No reals flaws asides from a pen tip sized scuff on the tip of the headstock, and a very small scratch/scuff near the Trem cavity.

Spec sheet is with the pictures.
