The guitar is oil finished and looks amazing. One of the best quilt tops I have ever seen, it was imported specifically for this guitar & cost around £500. The guitar is light weight and feels extremely sturdy. The 100 year old mahogany neck is very stable and in combination with hipshot hardware and Jadens setup makes for excellent tuning stability. 

The electronics use Dimarzio pots and a EP1111 switch allowing for coil splitting in the middle position. The pots and switch are smooth and tactile to use.

Condition is very good but the only downside of an oil finish is the guitar has picked up some minor marks. Please see post 2 for extra photos and examples.

You can see the thickness of the maple top here with the subtlety of the carve top and how well the neck matches the body:

The back of the guitar looks almost as good as the front

    Wow.  Guitar sacrilege perhaps, but if this was mine (it won't be), it'd barely leave the case let alone the house!  It's stunning.

    That's beautiful. I was so distracted by the wood grain that I'd assumed it had a trem.

    I've had a few questions about switch placement so here is a couple of photo highlighting the switch is located below the plain of the strings so it's below even the most windmill arm thrashing :)

    I asked him and he's pushed back, as he is (naturally) concerned about damaging the top, which I totally understand.

    yea sorry guys.. I know what kind of forces im going to be exerting on that guitar, the top, back and sides as I clamp it to route for a trem.. 
    from memory the guitar weighs in at about 2.5kg and as you can see, has a top spec, the details are correct, 100 year old cuban neck and that top did cost me £500 to buy..
    the new owner should be very happy and its great value at that price too !
