I just don't play it. It's in excellent if not mint condition. I'm the original owner. Waited a year and half for it. No dings/scratches. Plays great. Beautiful. I'm just afraid to take it to gigs and can't afford to keep it. Case looks great. Original paper work. I'm the first owner. Certificate shows oct 99 and the serial number and the maker (someone with the last name Feal it looks like). Would consider trading for a Les Paul Standard historic with slim neck.

The only modification is a minor wiring change done by a professional, but very cool; can be reversed of cousre, but you may not want to: It has Fralin Unbuckers. The bottom tone knob is a blender pot that allows you to blend the two pickups to the desired level. The bottom volume knob is a master volume (controls both pickups) like a PRS. One of the other knobs (forgot which one) acts as a variable coil tap -- that is, instead of just turning the coil tap toggle switch on or off, you can leave it on and bleed in only a little or all of the other coil. I found this very practical to blend in only half or so of the second coil. When your amp is cranked, that can make a big difference in output. I ended up doing it to other guitars as well.

If anyone is interested, please email me and I'll send pics. Only serious inquries please. THanks.

Yes, the Ultra SP on TGP's emporiums was mine. Sad to see it go, great guitar, but I'm happy that it's finding its way to a good home.
