Previous owner drilled (jabbed - see last post) 4 little holes as knob pointers, I've added vintage style ones but they don't quite cover them.
Obviously you could fill them but I never get around to it - you know how it is after a day or two... 

There are also a couple of extra screw holes beneath the jack plate from where he had fitted a rectangular one - not visible now. Also slightly chipped a small piece of lacquer when I mashed in the Faber insert posts for the abr bridge with my stupid fat hands, again - not really visible.

The rest of the wear is obvious from the pics.

The neck is fine with very little fret wear and absolutely no evidence of any neck breaks!

Looking for £1250 £1200 £1150 £1100 £1050 £999.99  £950!! via bank transfer, shipped from N Ireland -which isn't cheap. (980 via paypal).

No risk - I will cover insurance, return shipping and full refund if my bombproof packing is breached!
Gibson case, gibson box and then into a shipping carton with tons of bubble wrap etc.

Oh and trades: I'm after a butterscotch Squier classic vibe, maybe a Baja or blackguard body, tele neck. Anything else will have to be very tempting because I really need the cash I'm afraid - try me!

    Looks a lovely guitar, good luck with the sale. It's mind-boggling that someone would actually drill holes in that lovely top for knob pointers, but then again I've done some daft things in my time... 

    Great electronics upgrade too. :)

    In fairness, he was a really cool guy. 
    He'd have probably just sneered if I'd have brought it up, but really cooly. 

    Think you can just see the wee lacquer chip below the thumbwheel in this pic, I glued it back down.

    Holes drilled for knob pointers?  Sounds like a good night out here in Essex...

    Just when you think you've probably heard it all...

    German engineering bump!

    Looking to build up a butterscotch blackguard tele if anybody has a body or neck they want to trade?

    Sorry for the 24hr bump, mods.

    Ive seen something locally and need to make 600 from a trade, so let me know if you want to trade up on anything.

    Price negotiable!

    (guitar I was looking at was sold).

    1150?

    :)

    Can swap the faber bridge and tailpiece for shiny versions if you prefer.

  • Ah gorgeous guitar. Did you know what neck profile it is? Don't suppose you'd fancy a prs trade ?
    0reaction image LOL 0reaction image Wow! 0reaction image Wisdom
  • streethawkstreethawk Frets: 1631
    It's a nice 60's neck profile.

    Always wanted to try a singlecut but really need some cash. :(

    I'm guessing he had some sort of luminous dots in there for dark gigs??

    I thought about mixing some wax sticks to fill them but forgot about them. Might end up doing that if it doesn't sell soon.

    1050 delivered in its original hard case.

    A grand??

    Holes near the pots turned out to be little jabs through the lacquer, I dropped some nitro in them but imagine you could just scratch around in there and fill with coloured wax. It's hardly a blinkin neck break!

    Upgraded Les Paul plus top in its case £1000 delivered to your door.
