Made in Japan in 2005. 22 frets. The offical name is an e-sa-130ltc. Semi-hollow body, like a es-335, but the body is made with solid maple, the real es-335 being made with maple plywood, and mine has a mahogany center block rather than traditional maple. Two humbuckers, Seymour Duncan SH-2n in the neck and a SH-14 in the bridge. Mahogany neck with an ebony fret board. Matte black with a nitro top coat. Gotoh tuners, saddles and tailpiece. Came with a nice hardshell case

This guitar is quite versatile and can fit in with any situation jazz, rock, country, blues (with the ebony fret board you can even do speed metal). The SH-2n in the neck up is nice and warm while the SH-14 bridge pickup can get you a nice biting tone. It can get really loud and the sustain lasts for days. Quiet as a church mouse when you want it to be.

Flawless finish. Beautiful details with binding and paint. It feels very well made. The gotoh tuners are great and much better than the grover.

Been playing for 10 years. I use a roland jazz chorus amp, EHX Black Finger compresor, Dunlop Crybaby. My other guitars are La Patrie classical (awesome guitar) and a MIM strat. This is an great guitar and is very useful in all types of situations. The quality and craftmanship is outstanding and well worth the price.
