NancyJohnson Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Noticed these coming up on eBay once in a while - currently a vintage white/creamy one up, shipped for under £300.00. [url="http://tinyurl.com/4s8dp3"](eBay link)[/url] Anyone actually played one of these? Any good? The bridge is different to the original models, but otherwise, it certainly looks the part. Funds don't stretch to paying three or four times this amount for a Gibson. P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've got the funds, it might be worth a pop even if it needs some heavy TLC re. setup and upgrading parts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
