Description

A fully functional first year RD Artist, which was the top of the line RD model available at the time! This example is in good playable condition with moderate wear throughout the rest of the guitar. It plays great and has the unique RD sound with its Moog electronics still intact. However, the Moog electronics would benefit from being recapped.

HSC included.
