Made in Japan , Chuck Rainey Signature model.
One split P pickup, passive, rosewood neck, 4 piece body, honey wood finish like a old fender. Unusual shaped pickguard. Not been able to find a review/info for this thing anywhere.
Sound

Played through an Ampeg classic and 8 x 10, pickups are kind of blasty but has overall nice sound.

Bought used so a little worn in but that just makes it a little cooler to me
Reliability/Durability
:
No Opinion
Seems very solid if a little 'pre-loved'. Needs to be set up again with heavier strings. The lighter ones + detuning = some fret buzz. Tuners seem a little loose.

Great for $300, has a cool vibe and unusual looking pickguard and nice full throaty sound.
