these hardly come up especially in this condition in the blonde finish--they are amazing instruments and if you like a full yet not baseball bat neck--a big comfortable landing pad for lead progressi...ons then this is theChristmas present you deserve
"The fat neck profile (.930" 1st and 1.010" 12th) is just great.Ran it thru my Orange Retro 50 / Scumback H5/H75 loaded 2x12 and the tones were thick, thick , thick and very dynamic. Kicking in a Klon gave a wonderful boost and my Telenordia TA-24 gives a really nice chunky old school boost."
"my 09 Fatneck is a much better guitar than the Historic 63 Block I used to own. To each his own."
the 59 reissue Custom Shop 335 fat necks made in Memphis on the Custom Shop line were only made a few years--they were profiled of course after the iconic 59 ES 335 and as such the neck is very close to specs for that first year issue of what became one of the all time great blues guitars--the neck is also a long tenon variant and is a bit thicker than the 335 historics (i have one of those as well)
they made these in black and sunburst and cherry and ebony and the rarer and in my opinion most beautiful of them all--the blond nitro finish which paired with the dark mahogany neck is stunning
there's not much to say about this--it's near perfect with some slight smudging on the hardware and a few tiny spots on the back that didn't show up--it's 14 years old and has been played in a studio very gently--everything is near immaculate and it is in top playing condition having been freshly luthiered and set up for my preferences--
The case is also near perfect especially inside with no bad odors--more like a new guitar smell which is one of the all time great aromas--comes with the Custom Shop Certification of Authenticity
Ready to go to work when it arrives
i have perfect feedback in over 4500 transactions--all my instruments are completely gone over before i offer them--this one has new strings--a clean and polish and fretboard oiling and has been intonated as well as setup for my preferences--
NO RESERVE--$1 OPENING BID
