This is a custom 2009 Chafin Xalta Flat-Top guitar in the Trans Red finish. Please see all the pics below. Chafin guitars are custom hand built instruments produced by luthier Ben Chafin at his Tampa, Florida facility. Here's what he says, "Chafin Custom Guitars is focused on making high quality electric guitars and basses for discriminating players. I am proud to be a small company. This allows me to be personally involved with every single instrument and assures the highest level of quality while allowing each instrument to be somewhat unique. At Chafin I am about people, craftsmanship and commitment. Most of all, I am about building guitars that rekindle the fire inside of you, the player. If you pick up and play one of my instruments you will know what Chafin Custom Guitars is all about. Every guitar is carefully made by hand."  Features of this exceptional sounding instrument include a 1.5" thick Mahogany body, Mahogany neck, beautiful 22 fret Lacewood fingerboard with abalone dot inlays & jumbo frets, chrome Sperzel locking tuners, TonePros AVT-II locking wraparound bridge, aluminum recessed side jack, and ebony truss rod cover. I contacted Ben Chafin who stated he used both Seymour Duncan and Lollar P-90 pickups in 2009 - these appear to be Lollar, as they have an "L" marked on the back of both. It's in near mint condition with just a few extremely light surface scratches you have to turn in the light to see. It plays very well and sounds awesome, like a custom shop Les Paul Special without the custom shop price. A Les Paul style hardshell case is included. In short, this is an American, hand-made, custom guitar built from top of the line components and tone woods for under a thousand dollars. Thanks for looking.
