I bought mine as a "blemish", couldnt find anything wrong with it, must have been one that someone didnt care for for whatever reason. Their loss was my gain. Playing this through a Marshall DSL-40C is my perfect tone heaven. For this price, what you get is amazing, they are pricing it a point where players will get them when they are on a budget and then graduate to the customs when they have more cash.
