Just over $250 with 6 days left. Condition apparently is pretty good as well. :up:

This one is the exact same early model as the one I have. the trapeze tailpiece is nice and adds a bit different tone to the guitar. Sounds great, plays great, hope someone here scores it. Price is great thus far but I expect it to go much higher with the snipers out there. :up:

I confess. I think I probably won't/can't be staying in though. It looks very good. Too bad about the tuners - but - if they had to be replaced, the gold Grovers were a good choice. I also notice a bonus strap button - one on the heel and one on the horn. Beautiful to look at and beautiful players.

I was watching that one just to see what it would go for. Almost 1k more than mine - nice. A shame I like mine or could flip it for a pretty good buck.

These are indeed a superior build as are all the hollowbody models in the line up with this one. Burgundy Pro, Maple Pro, elvin Bishop, etc. The loder open book models with the trapeze tailpiece do seem to bring a bit more than the stoptail models but not by much. I would say if you ever have the chance to get one do it. 8) 8)
