Description

Recommended player condition used item!
They have a dignified presence, as if they know everything about the history of Japanese hard rock/rock!
This rare N-LP-STD, originally made for musicians in the early 1980s, is available pre-owned in recommended player's condition! It features a solid plain maple top, a well-packed mahogany back, a mahogany neck, and rich rosewood, making it a rare gem that looks and sounds great.

A top-of-the-line LP model that exudes craftsmanship!
The Navigator brand is made to maximize the potential of musical instruments through the use of carefully selected, exquisite wood, the uncompromising skills of woodworkers, the beautiful finish achieved through the painstaking work of painters, and finally the careful work of assembly craftsmen who breathe life into the instrument!

This model was made for musicians in the 1980s and does not have a serial number.
As mentioned above, the guitar features a solid-looking plain maple top and a solid mahogany back. The faded Cherry Sunburst finish is also irresistible!

The sound is as if it has been used at the forefront of the world since the 1980s, making it a rare gem with practical, good sound and tone!

The neck section is a solid mahogany neck with a volute shape, and the fingerboard is made of rich rosewood, a material with a rich color that is rarely seen these days! The neck set uses a deep joint with excellent strength, achieving the clear tone nuances typical of vintage guitars, a clear attack feeling with moderate tension, and rich overtones.

There is a straight line in the center of the neck back, from the headstock to the base, but we suspect this is not a crack but rather a result of the wood grain or the original manufacturing process. There is a slight bow on the 6th string side, but we have sanded it down before selling it as a used guitar, so it is still a ready-to-play guitar that can be used for a long time!

The pickups are two Seymour Duncan SH-1 59s, also from the 1980s! These were also potted later at the musician's request!

Those who know the great sound of old Seymour Duncan pickups are serious instrument connoisseurs! They are the ancestors of the PAF-style pickups that are so common today, and they are truly a true gem of a pickup!
It has a moderately mellow flavor, but is also full of nuance, and is fully capable of delivering the rich tone that soulful guitarists have been striving for!

This is a top-of-the-line Made in Japan model that you'll want to pick up and play for yourself, experiencing its solid construction, well-balanced sound, and rich, natural resonance! If you're looking for a vintage-like, great-sounding Les Paul-style guitar, this is a must-have!

This time, we have a recommended used player's condition guitar in stock! It is estimated to have been made in the early 1980s.
There are small scratches, dents, scratches on the buckle, scratches from playing, and dullness on the metal parts, but none of these affect playability. Despite the numerous scratches, dents, signs of use, and scratches on the buckle, this guitar has an irresistible presence, as if it was made by someone who knows the history of Japanese hard rock and rock music inside and out!
The truss rod cover is a different size and only the upper screw is attached. The original truss rod cover is not included. There are three cracks in the screw holes on the jack plate, but the guitar is still in usable condition.

The frets have been filed down. About 50% remain. As mentioned above, there is a slight twist on the 6th string side that tends to bow forward, but the fret heads have been filed down and aligned, so you can use it right away. The nut has also been adjusted. There are no problems with use. The truss rod can also be adjusted normally.

The electrical system has been fully checked and there are no problems with operation.

It weighs approximately 3.98 kg, and is balanced to produce the core sound that is unique to Les Paul models.

The only accessory included is the ESP brown hard case. Keys are not included.

This rare and highly recommended item offers the deep resonance and tone that only a well-used guitar can offer!

Don't miss this opportunity!
