Hey guys , I am here offering a truly one of a kind Virtus model of mine. This guitar is near the absolute peak of specification I can offer and it shows visually and tonally. Mastergrade tonewoods combined with quality craft all wrapped in an ergonomic and unique package.
**An Honest heads up**
Here at Dean Gordon Guitars we outsource to a shop that finishes and handles some of the worlds best luthiers and builders work. During the COVID19 pandemic cross country shipping has taken many delays and this body was shipped and lost during shipping. It was found after more than a few days in the system and the box had clearly been banged around, The body itself taking two minor cosmetic scars.
We decided against repairs as due to the nature of a modern poly finish it is impossible to repair without making it obvious and due to the nature of this body and the material it is made of we decided against a total refinish as it would have diminished the carves through stripping and sanding. It pains me to put such an amazing piece up for sale like this but honesty is my policy.
Attached are four photos of the "scars" on many angles barely noticeable and on others slightly more noticeable but overall they are purely cosmetic, they are totally smooth to the touch. This build was originally to be listed at a higher price. Thank you I hope you understand.

Chelsea Guitars, USA 
If you love old, classic guitars you owe it to yourself to check this place out. The place is tiny; basically what you see in the display window is most of what they got. Go inside and it's like dropping in to a friend's apartment, albeit a tiny apt. But it's cool; Dan and whoever else is there are just hanging out. If you need help, they're glad to do it but if you just want to hang, they'll give you space. They let me put a lot of time in with the guitar that I eventually bought and also let me play an incredibly expensive guitar just so I could see what it felt like.
But what I really like is that they're just regular, no BS kinda people who obviously love old guitars for their character. Some of what they've got is collector-level expensive but I bought an awesome Japanese tele copy at a really reasonable price. So whatever
We are also home of the Chelsea Hotelecaster - Telecasters made out of civil war era pine from the legendary Chelsea hotel NYC. Made by our resident luthier Dean Gordon.
