Anyway, we are customizing it in pursuit of playability and sound, and the parts alone are extremely valuable specifications.
[Special custom maintenance contents] ■ Equipped with genuine Rickenbacker bridge made in the 90's The original cheap bridge was luxuriously replaced with a genuine Rickenbacker bridge made in the 90s (the parts alone are worth 20,000 to 30,000 yen). This allows for surprisingly precise pitch (octave) adjustment even though it is a Bizarre guitar.
■ Replacement with modern pegs made in the 1980s In order to significantly improve tuning accuracy, we changed to relatively modern pegs made in the 80's. This eliminates the tendency for tuning to go awry, which is typical of Bizarre.
■ Thorough noise countermeasures Conductive paint is applied inside the body (doping process). Suppresses unnecessary noise and outputs clearly even during live performances or at high volume with an amplifier.
■ Neck preparation angle adjustment (shim adjustment) In order to eliminate the "height of the strings", which is a particular weakness of this model, we placed shims in the neck pocket to optimize the angle.
■ Fully maintained All parts were disassembled and carefully cleaned. Fret polishing and fingerboard oiling have also been completed. Furthermore, it has been fully adjusted at a musical instrument store, so you can use it immediately after receiving it.
[Product condition] ・Neck: Straight ・Truss rod: plenty of room on both left and right ・Frets: Unusual high flat type. It's easy to hold firmly, and the rest is about 70%, which is enough. ・Electrical system: Although it is an original part, there is no noticeable gully or noise and it works well. ・Appearance: Since it is a vintage item, there are considerable signs of use, scratches, and dents overall. Please understand that it is a taste unique to vintage. Please check the images for detailed condition.
[Note] *Currently, there is some rust on the strings as we are using dead stock strings to check operation. When you receive the item, please replace it with the string of the purchaser's preferred gauge.
