Eastwood Ichiban Teisco Sharkfin Copy Early 2007 Version Heavy Mods & Upgrades Hard Case Lefty Left-handed in very good playing and cosmetic condition. Professionally setup with regular 10 - 46 strings within the last year. This guitar has a fingernail-sized paint chip located toward the top of the right horn. The chip was hastily glued back into place at some point before I owned it. There is also a small scuff/gouge on the tip top of the head stock. Other than that, this guitar shows normal signs of use for a nearly 20-year-old guitar.
I'm selling off a large portion of my lefty guitar collection to help fund a home studio project. As a lefty player, I've become somewhat disenchanted over the years with the limited options available. As a result, I've slowly developed this compulsive habit of modifying almost every stringed instrument I get a hold of. It's become a bit of a hobby, I suppose. This beautiful Eastwood Ichiban Teisco Sharkfin Copy is no exception. Please see the list of extras, modifications, and upgrades below. Obviously, I'm not expecting to make back all of the money I've invested into this instrument, but I do feel that the upgrades and modifications lift its overall value. As such, I am listing this instrument at slightly above used market value.

o DiMarzio Vintage Minibucker Set – Chrome ($200)
