WORKING CONDITION: Excellent. This guitar is a masterpiece of playability in design. Leo Scala has thought of everything in the realm of making the best golden-era ES335-style guitar and upgraded its construction into a truly unique piece of sonic art. The action and fretwork on this guitar are as perfect as it gets, and the resonance (due, in no small part, to the very clever side sound vents) is echoed in the stunning Arcane Pickups, also handmade here in Los Angeles. If you want a 335-style guitar you will cherish and likely never sell, this is the one. 

PHYSICAL CONDITION: Near Mint. Since this guitar is hand relic'd by Leo Scala, it has built-in patina for days. You can tell he really put some time into this. The body, neck, frets, and hardware are all spectacular and have no flaws.

This guitar is a 1 of 1 and includes a gorgeous custom-fitted hardshell case. It was made as a prototype for the NAMM Show in 2019 and has been in a private collection since.

The extra pickups in the case are the original pickups that were in this guitar at NAMM 2019. Leo Scala felt the guitar needed a more specific sound, so new humbuckers were wound by Rob Timmons at Arcane and installed in the guitar by Leo.
