Body & Assembly by John Cruz Relic by Vince Canetto (The Ancestor of Relic) The rod has been fully turned since purchase from the US, but the neck has maintained its straightness for about 20 years. It should be fine unless you use heavy gauge strings. Only used for sound check since fret replacement. 12F 6th string 2mm, 1st string 1.7mm The bridge's grub screws have room in both directions, allowing for string height adjustment. Neck angle can also be finely adjusted by inserting shims. Above all, the thick, "banging" sound of the rear pickup is its biggest feature. John Cruz's (fingerprint?) paint on the back of the certificate.

I marked it as having some scratches and signs of use, but it might be original since it's a relic. Due to the nature of the product, please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such things.
