Between the bold red, white, and blue lightning bolt graphic, beautifully figured flame maple, and the unmistakable Grateful Dead Steal Your Face headstock, there's a lot of personality packed into this semi-hollow. It's a fantastic piece for a Dead fan, but there's also a genuinely nice guitar underneath all that artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe finish is especially striking in person. Both the red and blue sections have beautiful flame figuring that shifts with the light, and the white lightning bolt runs right across the top. Even the back is finished in a vibrant transparent blue that lets the flame maple show through. The pearloid block inlays and D'Angelico's distinctive headstock complete the look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt with a \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003esemi-hollow maple body and center block\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, this model features a comfortable C-shaped maple neck, rosewood fretboard, and dual humbuckers. It retains the familiar four-knob control layout and three-way selector, although several hardware and electronic modifications have been made by a previous owner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe upgrades include metal pickup rings, abalone-topped control knobs, Gotoh locking keystone tuners, and a roller bridge.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e I have not pulled the pickups to guarantee originals. The pickguard has been removed to show more of the lighting bolt. These changes are worth noting for anyone looking for a completely stock example, but they also give this particular guitar a slightly different look and hardware configuration than the original model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition is Very Good.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e This guitar came in fairly dusty, so I gave it a thorough cleaning and polish, and it cleaned up beautifully. There are some light scuffs along the back of the neck, which are the primary reason for the Very Good rating. Otherwise, it's exceptionally clean and presents very nicely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt has also been freshly restrung with \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eD'Addario XL 10–42 strings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, had its frets polished and fretboard conditioned, and received a recent setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA few highlights:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Original 2017–2019 Grateful Dead collaboration model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Red, White \u0026amp; Blue lightning bolt graphic over figured flame maple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Matching transparent blue figured maple back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Semi-hollow double-cutaway construction with dual f-holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Dual humbuckers with three-way pickup selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Upgraded metal pickup rings and abalone-topped knobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Gotoh locking keystone tuners and roller bridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Freshly polished frets, conditioned fretboard, and new D'Addario XL strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Recent setup and thorough cleaning and polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Very Good condition with light scuffs on the back of the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe photos shown are real photographs of this exact guitar.
