Roland GC-10 Guitar

[marzar]

Hi all, I have this listed on Reverb and locally here in Toronto, but happy to sell to a member directly here.  Will charge actual shipping, let me know where you're at and I'll give a price.  Local pickup / meetup in the Toronto area also welcome.

SOLD - Boss GP-10 (with 3 thirteen pin cables and one even works , original box if you want it, power supply, manuals, but no GK pickup). Scuffed and scratched but working fine.
Roland GC-10 with gig bag. Setup and working fine, you might need to clean the GK connector (what else is new  ) as I haven't used it much lately.

Asking $350 USD for the guitar plus shipping, or best offer.

(Sorry if the pix are a bit low res!)

Hi marzar,
Why are the bridge saddles set extremely high? Photos of other Roland GC-10's don't have them anywhere near as high. Did you replace the tuning machines? How are the frets, nut, neck, etc?

[marzar]

Hi Chumley, as to saddle height, simply that I set them that high  .

But seriously, I just did a quick adjust to something more typical, will attach a photo for you -- let me know if you think it looks better.  The saddles are now near the middle of their travel -- equilibrium has been restored. 

Yes, I changed the tuning machines.

As to your condition questions:
- from what I can hear or feel, the strings are not binding in any of the nut slots.
- It has a 9-42 string set on it right now, FYI.
- the nut slots are low enough for my tastes -- but there is room to take them lower if desired.
- for a thirty year old guitar, I would classify the fret wear as very light. No divots or dents of note.
- if someone was picky they may want to polish the frets... maybe a light touch of the fret file here or there to make it closer to perfect.
- with the saddles set as shown, measuring between the bottom of each string to the top of the 12th fret, I see about 2.5 mm clearance on the low E string to 2.1 mm gradually decreasing on the high E.  This suits my style. I am sure the buyer could perform additional adjustments to suit themselves.
- depressing at the first fret and fifteenth fret simultaneously on any given string, I see about a millimeter or less of relief at the 7th fret.  For me, this is fine.  The truss rod works, it can be adjusted.
- fingerboard rosewood is very clean, I see one little fingerboard string gouge under the low E around the 6th fret, otherwise very nice.
- I cannot see or feel any evidence of warping or twisting in the neck.
- I cannot see, feel, or hear any evidence of loose frets.
- I do not have any shim installed between the neck and the body.
- I cannot see or feel any evidence of sharp / protruding fret ends.
- with the guitar adjusted as described, I cannot hear any evidence of "fretting out" at any fret position of any string.
- since the guitar plays well at all positions on all strings, I would classify overall condition as very good as per my tastes.
- I am sure you will have to clean the 13 pin connector occasionally, I found I needed to every so often.  Seems to need it especially if not played for a while.
- buttons and controls all work well.

I hope I have answered all your questions adequately.  Best regards to you.

Thanks very marzar! I don't suppose you ever get to the Lower Mainland of British Columbia?
