2019.12.28: The music store I've been working with is closing, so I got a disposal price for one I've been interested in.
I don't know the exact model number as the specs vary depending on the age, but it is a 3S with a medium scale, tremolo and booster, so I think it will serve as a stress-free all-purpose guitar.
I noticed after cleaning the bridge that the arm that came with it was not genuine and the threaded diameter was not correct, so I had to buy a new one.
2020.1.23: I checked with the manufacturer for details and they said it was one of the sample units sold at a music store in 2007.
When I opened the companel, it said that the manufacturer had fixed a solder defect in the front PU.
2022.4: I sold it after fret rubbing at the workshop as it was not used at all.
