zontar said: I always thought that colour with a reddish tortoiseshell type pickguard looked cheap--maybe because I saw so many cheap guitars with it.
Still If I had the know how, the missing parts, and a spare couple of hundred--I'd consider bidding on it.
But with the work and expense for the missing parts, I wouldn't go too high.
Yeah that cheesey color combination is a winner in my eyes. I just like it, but it doesn't look that way with Olympic White in my opinion.
I wouldn't pay too much for it either, just fixing up that neck is gonna be a hassle.
But then again, I wouldn't be too concerned about fixing it up with vintage parts....right away anyway.
