Jeez!
£300-£400 maybe, if it plays nicely and there's a nostalgic buyer around. And that's still optimistic.

I bought 2 last year - White and Sunburst bolt-on neck Antoria Customs. £100 and £75 respectively.

They're a £200 guitar, max... folks are just getting silly with asking prices.
Agree about the Maxon pick-ups - I sometimes think owners/sellers/players are using some form of comment/knowledge to be more about them trying to sound 'intellectual' without having anything good to tell you - I don't get the hype attached to such p/ups and they have no magical fairy dust about them IMO - Yet they are not crap
I admit that a lot of this does include a professional set-up including fretwork, often a new nut, and a lot of stripping down and repairing things like screw holes, so you're paying for that as much as the guitar itself. But they can actually be pretty decent players, as long as you don't mind the slightly honky arched-ply-top tone.
I know things like new Epiphone Les Pauls are technically better guitars, but to me they just don't have the character, and can be quite clunky and need work themselves... I was just working on one today, awful thing - overly heavy and just dull.
