2020s Mario Martin Guitars S-Style Relic Electric Guitar
Overview: When I first picked this guitar up to play it, I was shocked at how "home base" it feels -- just like a '60s Strat in feel and sound -- but with a little lighter radius on the board. It's so lightweight and comfy that it just sort of blends into you, especially if you're very familiar with "the Strat thing" from having been around them all the time.
Everything has been thought of -- the board has rolled edges, the neck is just the right size and heft, the pickups are accurate but not boring, and the fit, finish, and build quality is up there. The relic job is nicely-done (especially the checking and light wear) and the aging on the plastic parts and metal hardware is believable.
Repairs included: I just gave it a very light setup. It's playing spot-on and ready to roll.

Condition notes: As far as I can tell, it's essentially "new." It's got a relic'd finish so it's hard to tell if it's been played much, but I'm assuming it's been light use since it was made.
It comes with: It's got a good gigbag.
