Description

This guitar was new and damaged in transit,it was untouched until recently - was in the store room of a well known Music Shop that went out of business.

The guitar has had a repair but due to the damage(the headstock was not broken) it seemed appropriate to leave the road worn look as opposed to refinishing the complete neck - it looks cool and authentic given that it has been damaged.

The repair is solid and smooth to the touch.Does not impact the feel or playability of the guitar,

The guitar has 2 x USA made Dean Nostalgia Humbuckers,sounds great and has the Slash look,The original pickups were not included when I aquired the guitar.
