Heres the link: J-185 TV Custom

 

Beautiful guitar! (I wasn't knocked-out by it, tonally, but that's just me.) I'm not sure what's "Custom" about it, but the Ren-signed label says it is.

 

Given the signature, you could probably re-sell it on eBay for more than this price, ... provided you're willing to ship to Japan. :)

Bob,

 

What is custom about that guitar, at very least, is that (1) it sports an abalone rosette (2) it has a firestripe pickguard (correct shape, but different material. Those two elements suggest that it is neither a run of the mill J-185 nor a True Vintage J-185. And it has a rather dark red burst too, sort of not too vintage sunburst-like.

 

It looks to be a Custom effort, for sure. And a nice one, at that.

 

Fred
