A proper early-2000s Korean-built Dot from the sought-after Peerless factory. These have built a bit of a reputation over the years for being a cut above the later runs, and this one backs that up — nice lively feel, resonant unplugged, and a solid, dependable semi-hollow tone once plugged in.
Classic ES-style layout with a warm, woody character and plenty of bite when you dig in. A really versatile guitar that’ll happily cover everything from clean blues and jazz through to driven rock.

Good overall condition for the age. There are a few small dings and surface marks across the body as shown in the photos, including some light scratching and minor knocks to the top and edges. Nothing structural at all — just honest play wear you’d expect from a 20+ year old guitar. Hardware shows light tarnishing in places.
Presents really well and has clearly been looked after.
