Here is what I’ll call “Player Grade Plus” Condition Guitar. 1-off Ron Thorn in irreplacable Korina/Western Red Cedar combination of woods. There is just enough wear to knock it down to the bargain basement pricing level….all while being clean enough that you won’t cringe when you see it. From a nonsmoking environment. Most notable in the wear dept is on the top where you can clearly see areas in which the finish has been worn through (from finger resting during playing). There are other dings and nicks as well but the picture of the top gives you a sense of what you’re getting here.
First off let’s talk Ron Thorn. You realize there ARE no more ‘ron thorn’ guitars…Ron was selected to run the Fender production (huge right). Second, you realize almost no two Ron Thorn guitars are alike. Each one was carefully crafted to be 1-offs. If you see something you like you need to grab it because there are typically not duplicates out there. Third, tonally Ron’s guitars are known to be in the upper echelon of instruments ESPECIALLY when you purchase them used. As yourself what can you find in the sub-$2k range that has this level of workmanship, wood quality and pedigree?
