2017.12.24: When I bought the LA-85kk, it came with a Custom-kk case, so I was looking for the right time to buy a Custom without the case. I was not able to win the bid because it was over my budget, but I was able to negotiate a good price on a flea market app because it was not in good condition and they were willing to sell it to me at a fair price. I think I can use it if I do some maintenance. 2018.1.9: For some reason it had a stereo jack, so I switched it to switch craft mono, and the front PU was almost disconnected, but I fixed that by soldering it back on. 2019.7.7: I tried to change the strings after a long time, but the insert block was not easily removed, and when I managed to remove it, all the strings were broken except for the one I replaced when I bought it. I'm going to try to get a new one. 2019.9.14: I decided to use it for live performance, so I had it fretted and rubbed with plek. The frets have been lowered since I bought it and are now at the limit of the rubbing height, but I also had the nut height adjusted again, so it's easier to play and the stress has been reduced. 2022.9: I sold it because it seemed that I would never have a chance to use it again.
