1980s PGM Moon ST-248 S-Style Guitar Lake Placid Blue w/ Seymour Duncan SSL-1 & Case, Japan
1980s PGM Moon ST-248 S-Style Guitar Lake Placid Blue w/ Seymour Duncan SSL-1 & Case, Japan
Up for sale, a 1980s PGM Moon ST-248 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. A rare boutique Japanese S-style guitar crafted by PGM under the Moon branding, this instrument stands toe-to-toe with the finest modern builds, featuring a trio of Seymour Duncan SSL-1 single coil pickups and a gloss Lake Placid Blue finish.
This ST-248 weighs 7lbs 13oz with a lively, detailed acoustic response that provides an ideal platform for the trio of factory-installed Seymour Duncan SSL-1 single coil pickups. These pickups are designed to recreate the sound of a ‘50s Strat, featuring staggered Alnico V pole pieces, black bobbin flatwork and cloth-covered leads. The bridge pickup has ample sparkle and bounce, the neck pickup has a throaty fullness, and there’s a scooped spank at the “in-between” positions on the five-way pickup selector switch. This Moon ST-248 has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Lake Placid Blue finish exhibits faint greening of the clear coat, and cosmetic wear is limited to light buckle worming central to the back (largely constrained to the tremolo cavity cover) and just a few minor dings on the body as a whole. The smooth ambered gloss on the neck profile is flawless.
The original textured brown tolex hardshell case is included.
