"has been mutilated" - eBay content

Bringing new meaning to the word "vintage".

Love the way he crossed out "Encore" on the headstock, and then wrote "Fender" - very convincing!

Omg, that's awesome. Totally shit, but awesome!

The relicer was a little heavy-handed with the sandpaper on the lower horn.

It's got a beautiful neck carve, but nevermind that, I saw this listed below, which I think takes it to another level . £500 of parts, hours of work... the trem installation is just perfect. Not surprised he broke up with his girlfriend if this is what she thought of him!

Is it bad I find it slightly arousing?

I enjoy the fact the starting bid is £12.99

Ironically if it started at 99p or 1p he would likely get more than the £12.99 as someone would buy it for spares....

Great upper fret access... i think he nailed it

Not when you add the postage. Even if it started at 99p, with £15 postage on top it's still overpriced.

None of the parts are of any worthwhile quality. The bridge is probably the only bit worth having, if you're trying to fix a similar guitar with a stripped arm socket or something.

I like the batchelors penthouse bit, best..

An absolute bargain considering its been personally signed by Johnny Rotten

I wouldn't spend that much on the most mint Encore on the planet, let alone this one...

Huh...no bids?...

Come on guys, what kid hasn't savaged a cheap non-collectable guitar to customise it?

And it did come from a house clearance.  Obviously the original modder had no intention of actually selling the thing.

(I'll pass on this occasion though.)

As a house clearance, one must assume he sadly passed away before the modding was complete
