SOLD / £4250 . For Sale or Trade . RARE VINTAGE 1977 PACK LEADER . ROSEWOOD .

Rockhard · January 2021

Recently acquired but considering letting it go , It's in terrific order with a bit of patina after 40 years . Pro set up currently on 9s . Plays great and sounds huge , big sustain was what this was all about . All handmade like the wooden binding and solid silver inlays . You either know what it is , if not do a search for full history but basically a project between Terry Pack and Roger Bucknall who are still in business . As played by John Miles may not mean much to some !

One long term original owner before a friend briefly had it . Original owner fitted Badass Bridge . Di Marzio Super Distortion and PAF . Push/Pull coils taps were again fitted by 1st owner and done at Gordon Smith Workshop . It's had a Roland pickup so 3 little holes .

One of 67 made and this is one of 40 rosewood . Serial number is in 20s .

I will trade for a nice R9 Les Paul or negotiate some . Serious enquiries please PM . Thanks guys .

May be an image of guitar

What's that thing behind the bridge? It almost looks like a truss-rod adjuster, but I can't see why it would be positioned there!

look at the seam of light coloured wood at the rear, I reckon the truss rod goes all the way and connects to the strap button

As the original owner, I can enlighten you - the truss rod extends from the pinwheel adjuster you noted, passes under the bridge and is anchored just beyond the lignum vitae nut.
