A guide for this piece: about $1,392, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A 1965 Gibson SG Standard in a red finish, presented as a used vintage instrument with replacement tuners and a missing pickguard section. Its 3.23 kg weight provides a useful counterpoint to heavier solid-body guitars.
The Piece
The condition details are central to this example's identity. Finish checking and dents are visible across several areas, and fret life is estimated at approximately 40%. The truss rod has adjustment room in both directions, but a personal setup may still be needed after transport. This is not presented as an untouched original. The nine photographs accompany the description so the modifications and wear can be considered together.
