380,000 yen → 340,000 yen Final price sale for 3 days only, from 1/10 to 1/12 This is the top-of-the-line Greco ZEMAITIS model, GZV-3700MF (list price 388,500 yen). I purchased it around 2008 at the Ochanomizu shop of Kanda Shokai. I am the first owner. I have only taken it out occasionally to test play it, and I have kept it carefully without taking it outside, so it is in a condition close to unused. The current V model, the ZEMAITIS MFV22 with one knob, has machine-engraved metalwork, but the V model offered here, made around the same time as the early Kanda ZEMAITIS, has hand-engraving by skilled craftsmen. The magnificent leaf design, carved deeper than the current machine-engraved models, can be seen even from the images (I was told at the time of purchase that the wavy design around the metal top is particularly difficult even for craftsmen). The specifications, including the pure silver head plate and the carefully selected mahogany, are said to surpass the current models. Since it was an expensive guitar from the time of its release, the number manufactured was small, and I have never seen one on the market other than this guitar for sale, including on overseas sites. Metallica's James Hetfield uses this tribal design, making it a popular V model not only for ZEMAITIS fans but also overseas. Although there is some dullness on the metal parts due to aging, it is in a nearly unused condition, as I have only taken it out occasionally to tune it and test play it. Therefore, there are no picking scratches from strumming. The designs on the escutcheon and bridge, which tend to fade with use, are perfectly preserved (images 7 & 8). The only flaw is a single small scratch on the painted surface of the V-shaped body (image 9), but I handled it carefully even when test playing it, so there are no small scratches on the back of the body. The neck is straight, and the frets are almost 100% remaining. The neck condition is also excellent, so the truss rod is unused. It is a very valuable piece, as all the original accessories are included, from the dedicated hard case to the owner's manual, certificate, case key, and even the small product name sticker (image 10). I believe it is a treasure-class piece in the history of Greco ZEMAITIS, kept in unused condition. I will ship it with the hard case protected by cushioning material. *Price reduction system is not available due to numerous pranks; please make requests in the comments. #FlyingV #ZEMAITIS
