I made mention in another thread of a body I want to sell, and thought I'd create a "for sale" thread dedicated to it in case somebody's looking for something like this specifically. This is it...
It's a chambered Mahogany body with a Maple top. I don't know what it weighs, but it's not heavy. I doubt it's much more than 4lbs. Bridge route is for an Original Floyd Rose, and the studs are already installed. Also, it has a chrome "football" jackplate installed. It came to me with 2 pots, a switch, and chrome strap buttons, which I'll also include, for whatever that's worth.
As you can see, it's in very good condition. The only flaws seem to be where the strap button hole was drilled in the upper horn. You can see it in the second picture above. Nothing wrong with the hole, it's rotated just off the tip more than I'd have done it.
Also, on the back it's possible to see around the edges of the control cavity cover where the finish buffer was a bit ambitious. Nothing serious, and it doesn't really show up in the picture, but you can see it in real life if you're looking for it.
Obviously, it's been assembled before - witness the aforementioned straplock holes and the holes are already there for the pickup rings.
I don't have a neck for it, and don't want to invest in the necessary Floyd I wouldn't like. Don't know what I was thinking about when I bought it. But, maybe somebody here is lusting after a VIP? It's a nice body style. Kinda like a sharp-edged Strat with a carved top.
This would be $600+ new... $250 and it's yours, shipped anywhere in the CONUS. I'm willing to ship elsewhere, but of course additional charges would apply.
