And he's vague about the description too. It's got a "short neck" apparently, doesn't say why. Anyone recognise these? Is it worth a punt?

He seems reliable, 100% feedback isn't a bad sign. Kinda child-like though with the description. I'd feel even more luckier if I'd win it for the score price of £1 not £20 quid in advance..tho shame there's a reserve. If your concerned, ask the seller more questions or pictures. If your confident, Go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only going to croak up to around £100. It's not as if there are only 10 of them in the world, is it? He can naff off with his vague descriptions and unreasonable payment terms.

I think he's just a dozy plonker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Bolton Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Going by the age what model would you say it was? I'd message him but he seems like such a tool that he probably couldn't tell me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Actually the neck does look really short to me. It's not even the length of the body. Come to think of it the headstock is incredibly tiny too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first number after the prefix might be a 5 or 6, though it's a bit hard to see. It's just the standard squier that was available at the time, so could go anywhere from £100 to £150 (if people don't mind the scratches). The way he's listed it I'd expect it to reach nearer the bottom end of that. Edited January 31, 2008 by Musky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
