The marvellous Bridgehouse already posted the most comprehensive review and pics imaginable so I will direct you to that thread:

I bought the guitar off him, and since then it's had a set up and a new nut. I paid £1200. WIlling to let it go to a FB user for £950 (£970 delivered).

And a couple more pics here:

    I’ve played this guitar, it’s a beast. Wonderful and I’ve heard the rumours of its previous keeper too.

    Bump. £950 and will courier for an extra £20 - last chance before it goes on ebay this weekend. Much rather it sold on here, it's an insanely good guitar.

    Should mention that a couple of pick guard screws have dropped out, but it will easy to source period correct ones for very little.
