That MCI sure is purty! Is it standard height? Are the pickups single coil or humbuckers?

Thank you for the inquiry Whiz.
The guitar is standard height and the pups are Barcus Barry.
As they are the original pups I assume they are single coil. Maybe someone who is familiar with them would chime in here.

Bud,

Those Barcus Berry pickups are humbuckers.

Thank you Skeeter. That's why one should never assume, right?

Not to hijack the thread, but I’d almost forgotten how great these guitars sounded until a friend posted some old videos of me playing my old MCI at a jam session about 1996. Best of luck with the sale!

Hey Skeeter, I'd love to have a link to see those jam videos. I'll send you a couple of the old girl in action these days if you like. Still sounds great. BH

There was an MCI, same color, for sale in my town of Mason, MI in 2018. It had a up lever on the right knee. Cool guitar. Seemed like it was slightly smaller in dimension than my Fessy.

Good one for a carbon fiber wrap black in color I’ve seen Damir use it on a Franklin really turned out cool.

Wow I can’t believe this Gorgeous MCI HAS NOT SOLD A DOUBLE 10 priced at a Sd 10 price!!!

Things are still moving slowly but picking up a little.
This is a great guitar for the price.

Bumping for my friend who is selling this guitar through Willis V.

Willis, how much does the guitar weigh in and out of its case? It looks fairly light.

It might be a good road axe for Road Warriors. The humbuckers mean it doesn't matter which side of a possibly electrically noisy stage you are setup on. The travel case should protect it on a bus or plane.

The guitar weighs 41 pounds set up to play.
In the case the weight is 58 pounds.
Thank you for your interest.

Gaetan.
No one is hiding anything.
That is how the guitar is built. There are four machine bolts installed from the inside. And in between them is one installed from the outside.
This is on all four of the MCI guitars I have owned.
If you would like I can send you a couple of photos.
