Arbiter LP Jnr

I saw this pop up: https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/1970s-arbiter-les-paul-junior-copy/1239791426

I've had a google, but there's not a huge amount of info, but it's a set neck, looks like a well made guitar, is it worth the asking price? (Because I like it)

Seems Arbiter were a distributer that at times badged things coming out of the FujiGen factory? Billy Bragg had one...

Noice - apart from the incorrect bridge/tailpiece.

If the pickup is stock, it's a very fair price. If the pickup is an upgrade, that price is a steal.

Depends how much you like it, I suppose...

Bradenstoke, Wiltshire, is at least an hour's drive from Mr. Seven's gaff. Perhaps, you can beat him to it?

Agree that £250 is a v good price, I was looking for one of these for a couple of years - they usually go for closer to £400 on the eeb. £250 is closer to what you would pay for a used Epi 57 Reissue Junior, but with a nicer finish, and a more 'correct' neck/body joint and wraptail angle. Condition looks good too - won't last long! If it was close to me I might be on it myself!

I used to have one and it was a great instrument. As said by others, £250 is a great price.
