probonopublico Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I’m reducing my number of instruments and this one may be of interest to someone. The history of this one has been documented here . In a nutshell I acquired it in 1979 and used it throughout the 1980’s. I stopped playing and got a ‘proper’ job in 1988 and left it at a guitarist’s house. He had it until 2022. He’d moved 5 times with it. I picked it up and thought I’d have a project. I’m not really interested in doing anything with it now so it’s up for sale. I recently took it to a luthier who set it up and sorted out the electronics inside. It’s a neck through to bridge which should be removable but he couldn’t get it off even after removing the brass plate. It has its battle scars from the working men’s clubs of the north. It now plays great and has a set of rounds on it. The two P pickups give it a lot of power. I’ve pictured a close up of the truss rod adjustment, there is a bit of silver showing with is some masking on the electronics. There’s not a huge amount of adjustment left in the rod. Specs: Body is Walnut with maple inserts, neck is maple with walnut. pickups are Di Marzio, passive. Controls are Volume for each pickup and Tone with pickup selector. It's a 32" scale. It has a brass nut and Grover tuners. Currently strung with rounds. It weighs 9.8lbs. Let’s face it, the wood is so nice you could probably strip it, sell the hardware and make it into an attractive coffee table. Wafer thin gig bag included. I’ll even sling in a VOHALO double guitar stand with it. Price includes insured delivery although if you want to collect/meet up within 50 miles of Hull I can knock the delivery price off.
