It does not come with tools but uses the standard set for IBZ RG. The original case is perfect shape inside and 7/10 on the outside, lots of nicks and scrapes but no broken hinges or latches and the combination lock latch still has the plastic gaurd in it, never used. It comes with the original whammy bar with no rubber grip on it.
No cracks behind the nut and only a slight low side crack at the neck pocket. It has 2 S.Vai autographs, the one on the front is covered with clear tape and the brown in the pictures is where the tape has dried out over time. The guitar has always been reliable, stays in tune perfectly and an overall'intersting' vibe. The guitar is pretty heavy but comfortably balanced and plays like it knows what you're thinking, very smooth low action, no buzzes, super responsive, overall warm thick tone, huge clear clean sound and with the pre-amp on it just screams.
The intonation is as perfect as possible. more on/off for the bridge pu, the switch is a push/pull tone pot. There is a custom 9v pre-amp built into the guitar that functions. The back is covered with stickers, easily removed just by getting them damp. There are a few nicks around the edges of the body through to the wood and also on the tip of the headstock. The tremolo has significant wear and the finish is worn. It was re-fretted about 10 years ago and has been in the case and unplayed ever since.
