Patrick James Eggle 96 Drop Top - HSS - Sold

JamesDad

I traded this one with Rev Matt recently (& thanks to him for letting me re-use his pictures, as it saved me taking a load more looking exactly the same).

It's a really nice guitar and it prompted me to buy a new PJE 96 Vintage from Music Street. Being predominantly a Strat player, I find this suits me better (a bit more "Stratty"), and I can’t justify keeping two guitars of this quality, so one needs to go.

The basic specs are:

BODY – 1 piece swamp ash back with a black grained open pore finish and a highly figured maple top

NECK – roasted figured maple with a soft V profile, Santos Rosewood fretboard with a 12" radius fretboard and Jescar 55090 medium frets

HEADSTOCK – standard headstock with straight string pull and Gotoh PJE branded locking tuners

HARDWARE / ELECTRONICS – MOJO SSH hand wound pickups, with a 5 way selector switch, volume and tone controls (push/push coil split on the tone control for the bridge humbucker)

BRIDGE – ABM knife edge trem with KTS titanium saddles

Comes complete with the original fitted G&G tweed case, owners card, spec sheet, Allen keys, etc

As you can see in the pictures, this is in superb condition, with no dings or scrapes. The high gloss nitro finish to the top does show a few (very) slight pick marks (it is a 5-6 year old guitar after all), but you have to get the light exactly right to see them.

Any questions (or for more pics), just ask.

How do you get rid of multiple discussions? I tried to add pictures and it just created an new discussion. I now have 3 of them and none with pictures!

There doesn’t seem to be a price either

Multiple listing issue sorted. Just one now (and price added - thank's @skaguitar I'd missed that when trying to sort out the pictures/listing)

This a really exceptional guitar (possibly the most beautifully built of any I've ever owned or played), and only sold due to a bit of a guitar playing crisis I'm going through - struggling with my conscience about the value of some of my guitars.

You’re welcome @JamesDad ….that’s a stunning guitar and I remember offering a trade before for that when it came up for sale..GLWTS

Open to sensible offers, but I'm not willing to drop by too much for a guitar of this quality.
