Controlled by 1 volume pot, 1 tone pot and a 5-way blade switch with coil tap on positions 2 & 4. The 25.5" scale length neck has multi-color Disappearing Pyramids inlays and white side markers with 24 jumbo frets on a 430mm radius with a UV profile. The hardware is comprised of cosmo black Gotoh sealed die-cast tuning machines with cloche heads, a Top Lok III nut, an Ibanez Edge Lo Pro 7 Double Locking Tremolo bridge and green top hat knobs with a clear acrylic pickguard.

"Although regular production of the guitar took place in Japan, the guitar bodies were 'swirled' in the USA creating the unique finish. This was done by Darren Johansen of About Time Design. Unfinished bodies would ship from the Japan to the US for swirling and back to Japan for clear-coating and final assembly."

This guitar is in overall very good condition. There are light surface marks and small dings throughout. There are some finish chips in various spots, including the neck pocket and on the back near the control cavity. The headstock has a couple of small dings. The plating on the bridge is worn. There are light marks on the fretboard, pickguard and surrounding areas. (See Pics)

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 9-54 strings. Includes Original Hard Shell Case.
