Guys, I am sure anyone on here could spot the non-original parts on this one...guess the seller just did not do any homework:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... _75wt_1009

If this one goes for the BIN, then mine must be worth $9000...LOL!

Spotted all that except for the bridge. Can't say that an LSR Roller nut, Grovers, and what looks like DiMarzios is a bad thing though.

Non-original yes. Worse than original as a player? Probably not.

The price is still too high though. You can get a neck through Rhoads for about $500.

I am pretty sure the finish is not original, or did they make some wedges in natural? It looks like the seller has updated his description after I sent him a message about the non-OEM parts. I agree with vidmachine...likely still a good player with the upgrades and especially if those are some vintage DiMarzios.
