The tailpiece studs have been replaced with FIXER studs, the jack plate is gold, the strap pins are now locking-style, and the control knobs and toggle switch have been replaced.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe pickups have been replaced with a SUHR Doug Aldrich Set. All electronic components—including the volume and tone pots, capacitors, and wiring—have been replaced.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nOverall, the guitar shows significant signs of use, with numerous scratches, dents, paint fading, weather checking, and replacement parts; however, it functions perfectly. Approximately 60% of the frets remain, and the truss rod turns 60 degrees in both directions—no string buzz.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nS\/N: 92916582\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 4.55 kg\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: Hard case\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition: B+: Some scratches, but no issues with normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 92916582\u003cbr\u003e \nYear of Manufacture: 1996\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Original brown case\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: Hard case\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 4.55 kg\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition: Shows significant overall wear; there are numerous scratches, dents, paint discoloration, weather checking, and replacement parts\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, and other imperfections that are not clearly visible in the photos or not listed here.
