Good looking grain on this one. Hardshell case, too. Pity he will not ship.

I *do* want it. Can you be my agent on this? I can PP the guy directly and I can have a girlfriend of mine pick it up from you... I just want a competent set of eyes on the thing.

Jack, that won't be an issue at all. Let me know after you have contacted him, or if you'd like me to contact him, let me know.

I am at work and am not permitted to see the CL listing. Would you mind contacting him? As long as the thing is straight and in reasonable shape, I want it!

Not sure what your definition of 'straight' is... usually in collector circles it means original, which as the title suggests this guitar is not.

The paint looks ok, wear on fretboard, the pickups and electronics have been changed and the bridge is not original. Says he did the mods back in the 80's, so I wouldn't hold my breath that he has the original parts still.
