This super cool flying vee is from a small (but growing) UK builder - Stormshadow Guitars - reasonably well known on this forum!.
The guitar is amazing to play with one of the best necks I've ever played (and I've own a fair few high end guitars from Vigier, PRS, Tom Anderson, Patrick Eggle etc). Tonally it's superb with great note definition, sustain and responsiveness. Of course, the EMG pickups are voiced for higher gain settings, but roll back the volume a tad and the guitar can be fairly flexible!
So, what we have here is a high end flying vee, aptly name EN-V, handbuilt here in the UK with an impressive spec list:
· Body - 2PC White Korina
· Neck - White Korina

· Heel - 4 Bolt
· Hardware Colour - Black
· Bridge - Tone Pro's Tune O Matic & Stoptail
· Pickups - EMG 81 / EMG 60
· Date Of Completion - 23/06/2012
Upcharge Options
· 2 PC White Korina Body +£100.00
· White Korina Neck +£100.00
· Pearl Dots £25.00

If you go to the Stormshadow Guitars' website and to the guitar archive section, you'll find this guitar: https://www.stormshadowguitarworks.com/view-product/Stormshadow-Guitarworks-SS0013
You'll also see from the website, that the EN-V model starts from about £1700, making this a great buy for someone! The condition is superb, with only minor superficial marks and no significant damage. The guitar plays brilliantly and is nicely set up. It comes with a Gator hardcase (which has a few scuffs consistent with use), original hang tag and allan keys etc.

My trading feedback - I'm a good egg
Although, in reality, I don't know, but with a bit of preparation I don't see why not...
I love this guitar but really don't need 2x guitars with EMGs...
May consider close offers or trade for a Patrick Eggle (Berlin / Vienna)
Thanks!
As I have now found (and paid for) a PRS Tremonti, this one doesn't have to sell, although still open to selling and may also consider trades:
Patrick Eggles always welcome
USA Strats
Charvel / Jackson
PRS S2 / CE etc...
However, it is little used so much as though it would be nice to keep it's still available.
