Only selling to fund another,SUB white one,that was trying to find prior to buying this black one,tort guard,not included,but will have the original black guard,which due to lot of scratches on the back of the neck,not dings,sanded the paint off the back,and now is nice smooth natural satin finish. I removed the neck,for sanding,and saw the date of the SUB,which is August 18,2003. Will be shipped in a nice padded gig bag. PM with Any questions. Need to move this one,in order to justify having two,after I receive the white SUB. I have the active Teal SUB also. PayPal is acceptable for payment.
