Members Noise... Posted March 27, 2008 Members Share Posted March 27, 2008 big pic warning? anyone still on 56k here? I was just up until a few months ago. It's shocking that there are still places that are *just* getting high-speed internet service. And before the high speed, I didn't even have dial-up. I had dial-up's little inbred 33kb/s cousin. I would literally be able to pick up my guitar and play a whole song before a page would load. I {censored} you not. Back on topic, nice guitar! How much? It looks like it's in really good shape.

Members pepperduck Posted March 27, 2008 Members Share Posted March 27, 2008 Nice score man! I love old hollow bodies. They have so much character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AnderMocs Posted March 27, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 27, 2008 Back on topic, nice guitar! How much? It looks like it's in really good shape. 375, Its not in the greatest shape. the neck separated from the body at some point but it was repaired really well and has not had problem for years. The wiring is totally shot. the neck pickup works most of the time, but the bridge pickup is hit and miss. i'll switch to it and just get a hum, i can wiggle the cable for a while and it'll go away. but other than that its awesome.

The wiring should be an easy fix (although more difficult than normal because it's a hollowbody), and I'm sure the neck is fine. If it's playing right and has for years, then the neck was properly repaired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
