For your consideration: an original-run Charvel Surfcaster 12-string in gloss black. Equipped with all original stock parts, in perfect working order, and in amazing condition. These are some of the most playable and sought-after 12-strings out there. It has all the sonic and visual hallmarks of top-level tone-snob guitars out there (Fender Jazzmasters, Jaguars & the like) while sporting the speed and playability of the metal-era shredders (Jackson, Ibanez, etc...) Here's some specifics:

Made in Japan at the Fuji-gen Gakki factory- renowned for their attention to detail and superb fit & finish. Fuji-gen now makes the ultra-high-end Zemaitis guitars. This guitar was produced during the original '92 to '95 surfcaster production run- considered to be the finest examples of the Surfcaster.

This guitar has a simple gloss black finish on its basswood body. Both the pickguard and the cream binding have yellowed beautifully with age. The thin-profile maple neck, jumbo frets and rosewood fingerboard make for speed and comfort during play. The two Chandler lipstick pickups really chime and sing out in a mix- and the push/push switch hidden in the tone knob reverses the polarity of the bridge pickup for even wider tonal options. This guitar is in excellent used condition- very slight fretwear and 3 or 4 slight scratches on the back- the kind that can be easily buffed out. I'd give this one a 9 out of 10. Has new-ish strings and has been set up and intonated within the last 6 months.

I hate to let this one go, but my financial situation has forced me to thin the herd a bit- and 4 Surfcaster 12s may be just a bit too much awesome for one man to own.

I will pack and ship this guitar securely to the winning bidder's confirmed address within 1-2 business days of recieving payment. Guitar will ship in a battered but still functional OHSC case, or you can upgrade to a newer Gator-like HSC for an additional $35.00.
