INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED
After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.

Tech Notes: Bass, Hardware, and Electronics were cleaned/tested and are functioning appropriately. Setup with minimal neck relief and medium/low action. There is light scratching farther up the fretboard under the A string (frets 13-17ish). Setup with D'Addario 45 - 100 gauge Roundwound strings. Plays great throughout the entire neck. Very unique combination of tones with the lightwave preamp system and fretless. You'll notice on the underside of the neck the nut has started to push out underneath the finish. It is currently still stable and smooth to the touch.
** As a note the current rechargeable battery is functioning however has slowly lost its maximum charge (9V) over time. It's currently reading closer to 8V. We are in the process of getting a second battery which will also be sent out once we receive it.
