Selling my 2005 Buscarino Corey. This is a wonderful instrument that was my main gigging guitar for many years. There are some superficial mars to the finish, one ½" crack in the upper bout that John Buscarino repaired in 2010 and the finish is rubbed off where the guitar hung on a guitar stand near the headstock (see pics). Other than these superficial things the guitar is as solid as a rock, the Armitage flight case and case cover are included as well as an extra rosewood tailpiece, a Buscarino ebony bridge and ebony knobs. It's a great instrument. Video below to hear it in action
Now asking $5000 plus shipping or make an offer. More on Reverb.

I watched the video and dug your playing. Sounds nice man. Good luck with the sale. Looks like a bargain for something that sounds like that.

Thanks for checking it out and the kind words! I do think it is aggressively priced

The neck meets the body at the 16th fret, like the 16th fret neck joints Höfner introduced on archtops in the late 1980s - a really useful feature for the modern player.

I know you feel that way but I’m so grateful that you sold it to me. As I said to you, I wish I could clone it and we could both enjoy it.
