Cibson M-III M-3 Standard Guitar - 1991

Ideal for metal and speed playing, it can also punch out some nice stratty Blues tones when you need it.

The stock toggle switch actually allows you to dial in nine distinct tones. In position one, everything is in a single coil set up, following the traditional Stratocaster 5-way set up. In position two, you can dial-in your normal humbucker positions on the guitar like a C-Les-paul in positions 3-5, with two added settings in positions 1 and 2. On this setting, position 1 is a standby position that turns off all the pick ups, and position two gives you just the neck pick up with some of the tone rolled off for darker, jazzier tones.

Basically, this allows you to get all the sounds one would get from a Stratocaster as well as a C-Les-paul all in one package.  This makes the guitar highly versatile well beyond what the "shredder" cosmetics would indicate.

It also features a Explorer-like reverse style headstock, and neck/through design with a slim profile for super fast runs a la the style of the era.

The guitar itself is in very good condition for its age. It has only light fret wear in the normal places. The body has a few light scratches on the top, and some bit of buckle rash on the back, but 85% of this is relegated to the back plate cover. One or two minor dings along the edges, but overall it looks very clean.

I just polished the frets and set it up with a 10 gauge strings at medium-low action. Guitar sounds and plays great, and you can easily adjust the action according to your preferences by tightening the tremolo springs.

All in all, the guitar is in excellent shape with some minor signs of playing wear. It also comes with the original hardshell case. As often happened with these cases, the center locking latch came off. The outer two latches are very strong and work perfectly. The original tremolo bar is not included, but a replacement can be easily found for a Floyd Rose.

Price is $1099.99.  Shipping is $49.99 to the domestic USA. International shipping will be through the eBay global shipping program, although I might be able to find you a cheaper rate shipping it to you directly on my own. This isn't always the case, as eBay gets significant discounts through their program. But I can always check to see. If you are an international buyer, please contact me ahead of time before buying for confirmation regarding your country.
