Part One: Introduction
There is virtually no information online concerning this guitar. All I know is that Tagima is a Brazilian company. However, I do not think that this particular instrument was built in Brazil. Basically, this guitar is a PRS copy. It sports a double cutaway body, set-in neck, 22-fret bound fretboard, two humbuckers, a toggle switch, tune-o-matic bridge, stop bar tailpiece; and controls for master volume and tone.
As received, the Tagima was in unplayable condition. Dust, dirt, rust and grime was the order of the day. To make matters worse, someone had messed up the wiring and even disconnected the toggle switch. The owner's instructions were to get the guitar back in shape at minimal cost. Seriously, if I had a ringgit for every time I've heard that; I'd be a rich man.
