also, esp "truckster" james hetfield signature model.. affecting the used value negatively but making it a much better guitar, i stripped off the ugly ass fake looking "relic" paint job, used dark brown stain and rubbed it in tung oil.. looks and feels much better now. still has a "relic" look to it, seems like a vintage guitar and not something built in the last 10 years. no problems, sounds sick but im not a fan of the 24 3/4" scale. i dont want to sell it really but im using the money to fund hardware for 3 new guitars im building, and that shits expensive... $600 including set up with new strings..
