History is an original brand developed by Shimamura Gakki.
This model is the flagship TH-VS1.
It is based on a traditional double-cutaway design.
The body is made of two-piece alder, the neck is hard maple, and the fingerboard is rosewood.
The fingerboard features a circle fretting system.
It is equipped with a Louis Vintage FAT II pickup.
It is characterized by a powerful sound that retains the brilliance of a single-coil pickup.
It features a cowbone nut, Gotoh locking tuners, and a tremolo bridge, demonstrating a commitment to high-quality hardware.
Combining carefully selected woods and parts with a meticulous Japanese finish, this guitar offers a high level of craftsmanship in both tone and playability.
This instrument is delivered after rigorous inspection by TONIQ’s craftsmen.
Approximately 80% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is on the stiff side, but it has been confirmed to move approximately 90 degrees.
The neck exhibits signs of bowing. There is slight buzzing when the 6th string is picked hard.
The body and finish show overall scratches, dents, and tarnish on the metal parts. Fading is visible on the pickguard, pickup covers, and knobs.
The electronics are in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.
