GreeneKing Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) This is unusual and totally mint as well. It's a US made RKS 5 string with a 3 piece maple neck, ebony fingerboard and passive tone controls. It has a huge tone and a great B string (34" scale). All the hardware is top spec US and it has an aluminium tone block on the headstock too. It balances fine. Everyone who has tried it has been very impressed. I'm asking £500 Here it is: [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS1.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS2.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS3.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS4.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS5.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS6.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS7.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS8.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/Wraithwrider/RKS9.jpg"][/url] Peter Edited March 12, 2009 by GreeneKing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
