Shelter 501, low mileage, I would estimate between 200 and 300 hours.
The 501 originally sold as the Crown Jewel costing £1600 new, but was rebranded the 501 to sit underneath the 901. Shelter was founded by ex-Supex employees after it went bust and to me (a former serial Supex 900 user) it has that wonderful silky but punchy quality to it that the Supexes hada
Another Supex alumnus of course was Sugano, founder of Koetsu and in fact, I sold my Koetsu Rosewood and bought this - it gave little if anything away and indeed the character is very similar.
Looking for £350, including postage, for this one.
