This item is a "B-Stock Guitar" directly from the manufacturer. It is NEW Stock that has never been owned. Pictures are of the actual guitar you will receive.

A "B-Stock Guitar" is a guitar that won't have structural or playability issues but could possibly have some particular minor cosmetic flaw which can keep it from passing the rigorous inspection process put in place by the guitar manufacturer. These guitars do not come with manufacture warranty.

we will have our licensed tech go over the guitar and set it up for you. I noticed on the bass you can see some non finished wood in the neck gap on the right side of the horn and on the back the finish has a dark area. (see pictures)
