Early Marlin K32 made in the old DDR between 1985-86

  

Extremely rare Marlin K32 Stratocaster copy made in Germany in the old DDR at the Musima factory. These guitars where only made for a period of one year between 1985 and 1986. It feature a solid wood body a rock maple neck and powerful German made pickups that used hi-powered base mounted magnets supplied from Russia. Overall the guitar is in fair condition would class it as road worn has lots of dings scratches and marks but no major damage.

Has what I consider to be a lacquer crack in the neck pocket not a crack in guitars body. All 3 of the guitars control knows are missing very common I have never seen a K32 with all its knobs it is still fitted with the original square DDR potentiometers which have small D shafts. Neck is nice and straight but it does have light fret wear (see photos) also neck has signs of finger wear due to excessive playing which is a good sign. Turners are original and have signs of surface rust (see photos).
