Instruments from this period are known for a heavier build, often using denser Ash for the body. This era saw the continued use of the \"F\" style tuning machines and a shift towards thicker \"poly\" (polyester\/polyurethane) finishes compared to the thinner nitrocellulose used in earlier decades. Sunburst was a premium classic finish that beautifully showcased the grain of the Ash body.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU PURCHASES ARE DELIVERED WITH TAXES AND DUTIES PAID\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll purchases include EU taxes\/duties paid, i.e., nothing further is due on receipt of goods to any EU state.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY BUY FROM US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe are one of the world's leading specialists in used and vintage gear with over 30 years of experience.
