Up for sale is a Balaguer Toro with some pretty awesome specs. It has a gorgeous roasted ash body and roasted maple neck and roasted maple fretboard. Some additional specs are stainless steel frets, Balaguer locking tuners and Gotoh 510 trem.

The guitar plays effortlessly and sounds fantastic. I had custom wiring installed to mimic the Ibanez AZ Tom Quayle model. The Balaguer Monoliths have become my favorite single coil pickup and the custom wiring confirg allows you to have them in series to get a nice thicker neck pickup tone. It's as close and as convincing to a humbucker you are going to get without actually having a humbucker.

So is this an import? Do these guys have a USA custom shop and then sell their main line from imports they have made?

Yes... SK(not the same place where PRS, Chapman, etc are made). They have a USA line called Heritage. The guitar I am selling comes from their select custom line. I choose all of the specs(bridge, wood, pickups, etc). They also have a select standard line which is made by the SK team, but ordered in batches of 15 or less to keep production costs down. Finally, there is a Standard line in Indonesia.
