JAPAN IMPORT
What an absolute stunner of a guitar this is! Momose guitars are hand built at the Deviser factory in Japan & along with Bacchus & Seventy Seven guitars the Momose brand sits at the top of the pile. Fantastic build quality & attention to detail & this model is a Telecaster equipped with Deviser's own highly rated P90 pickups. The colour "Forest Green Top" is a special order & I doubt you'll see another one.
This is quite a rare opportunity to purchase one of these guitars. They are mainly built for the higher end of the Japanese market. They are beautifully made & play and sound great.

This particular guitar was built in 2021 & looks to have been barely played. I cannot find a mark on the guitar, maybe a few pick marks on the scratchplate but that really is about it.
This guitar arrived with a monster of a gig bag which I will be including in the sale along with a new generic hard case for shipping protection. The gig bag is probably enough to protect it but I am offering both options at this price so, for shipping, I'll send it out in a hard case & send out the gig bag separately.
Here's the description & spec from Deviser. I had to translate this from Japanese so it reads a little strangely in places!
A manual transmission model that uses African mahogany for the body and is equipped with two P-90 type pickups. The P-90 type pickup outputs a thick, sweet sound while maintaining the crispness unique to single coils.
The body binding also gives it a firmer look.
This model pursues playability in every part, such as the waist contour and the drop in joint plate.

Hard Case
As said many times, all my guitars come shipped in a new black hard case which is included in the price. I find this is the safest way to avoid damage in transit. Please contact me before purchasing if you would like this. Alternatively, if you are collecting the guitar and, like some buyers have cases coming out of their ears, that's no problem, I'll adjust the price (usually around a £50 discount) and I can usually find you an old gigbag to take the guitar away in. The only hard and fast rule I have is that i won't ship a guitar in a gigbag.
If you are further interested in this guitar, you can either email me with any queries & I'll do my best to get back to you within 24 hours.
Or, you can buy quickly and safely using the PayPal "buy now" button and I will ship to most UK addresses the next working day. Highlands and Islands can be slightly dearer but I'll keep the cost as low as I can.
I can accept credit card payments by phone and will also offer a small discount to purchasers using bank transfer payments.
Overseas customers are very welcome but please email me first for shipping quotes.
