Peerless songbird - SOLD


Peerless Songbird With Fralin Pickups & CTS pots Etc. Inc Hardcase.


Recently bought from eBay but sadly the neck is a tad slim for me (it’s not super slim, I just like baseball bat necks!)


Upgraded with Lindy Fralin pickups and CTS pots and it sounds fantastic for it.


Very lightweight being completely hollow. I’d certainly be keeping it if the neck suited me as it ticks every other box for me!

Looking for £600 ono + shipping 

Open to trades and can also add the below 80’s Ibanez Roadstar II into a trade (or cash when it sells!)

Based near Garforth for collection or can ship at buyer’s cost.

    Oh blimey. Identical to my first decent guitar which I gave away to a mate in 1989 when I damaged my finger and gave up playing for about 3 years.  If I was buying kit I would be all over that purely for the nostalgia. GLWTS.

    edit: You didn't happen to get it from a guy called Paul, nickname "Von Bastard" did you :-)

    Same model that Marty McFly used in Back to the Future although his was black obviously.

    Oof - I like that enough to do the 'hard yards' on posting the pic. 







    Sadly, not enough to buy it despite my soft spot for mid-80s MIJ gear. 

    Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder


    My trading feedback  - I'm a good egg  ;)

    Have someone make you a pickguard like the one below, stick you poodle perm wig on (if, like me, you're follicly challenged) and bust out the Motley Crud licks...

  • Hi Dom,
    I can offer a Jackson Dinky DXMG, Japanese with EMGHZ HH if that would make you happy?
     Bob.

    Thanks for the offer mate! I’ll have a think and let you know - I’m ideally trying to get back to a Gibson/PRS
