Sold Melancon Classic Artist £950...Back Up For Sale or Trade

krameree

Hi
i picked this guitar up a few years ago and It has held its own against any guitar I've played. I will add my pics later (getting a decent camera very soon as my phone is rubbish) specs are in the link apart from I've added new graphec saddles

£950 is a cash price but will entertain trades, simply let me know what you have and at worst I can say no...I'm near Woking in Surrey

Ahh this is my old one, amazing guitar. Here is some additional info I received from Gerard Melancon via email after I contacted him asking about the guitar. When I bought the guitar from Coda the info on the spec was a bit sketchy.

The specs are as follows:
Classic Artist #1500, Alder body with Flame maple top finished in Honeyburst.  Body also has tone chambers. The neck is maple with and East Indian Rosewood fingerboard, 10" radius and 1.6875" nut width. S/S/H pickup configuration with Melancon Blues wind pickups. The controls should be Master Volume, Tone for neck and middle and then a tone for the bridge that is also a push/pull to split the humbucker. Chrome hardware with a tremelo. It doesn't state the pickguard but it should  probably  be a pearloid. The order sheet also requested that I sign the back of headstock. Does this appear to be the guitar you have? If so it was completed in November of 2009. If not send over a couple of pictures because the guitar was part of a 4 piece shipment with all four guitars having consecutive serial numbers.

Hi #kennedydream1980 thanks for that, I agree the guitar is exceptional. I had Paul from www.prguitars.co.uk set it up and I would put it against any Suhr or Tom Anderson...

Melancon's are indeed fine guitars.

Thanks prudd...FYI all, £950 is the cash price. I've had a couple of trade offers and anything I take I would be looking to sell on very quickly, this will be reflected in potential deals...
