Start copy in amazing condition. I strongly believe this was made in the 70’s, but could be 80’s as well.

The quality is quite good, the body seems to be made of around 5 solid pieces of wood, with a veneer on the top and another one in the bottom. The bridge has a big aluminium block that says “made in Japan”, and the pickups sound very nice, it is a nice guitar overall.

As mentioned, it is really in very good condition. Only a few marks here and there, and a couple of cracks on the plastic white tremolo cover. but at first sight, looks like new.

The neck pickup seems to have aged more than the other 2, but I can confirm it is original. The knobs are pretty aged as well, but again, all original. The paint in some sections (specially in the neck) has a beautiful natural age cracking, but it is not falling apart or anything, just a natural vintage look.

Frets are in amazing condition, the neck is straight and the truss rod is working, I don’t think it was given a lot of use in the past. Perfectly suitable for players and collectors alike.

I am not sure about the brand. The hardware is definitely Japanese, and it looks a lot like one of those Japanese lawsuit era copies, but I was advised it is an east-German Musima.
