Not relic'd, but very distressed

At a more reasonable price, this would make a great restoration/refin project.

I rather like it as it is!

At around £1,200 cheaper than that, I'd still be umm'ing and eerrr'ing.
It's not as if it's been played to death, someone has literally planed the front off!

I know the owner and can vouch for him, he's a wicked dude, great player, and soundest bloke I ever did meet.

Me too. Funny thing this mojo lark - if I'd had it ages and it got that way by my hand I'd never sell it , but I don't think I'd want to buy one that already looks like that.

And 2 grand?? No.

In fact, looking at it, has the fingerboard been stripped as well?. Body needs a refinish, because frankly there's 'Mojo', then there's "I've just bought a sander, what needs sanding".

If the guy is a stand-up guy, I'm sure he'd be open to realistic offers lol

yeah that's not playing wear, and if he's sanded the front, it does beg a few questions such as:
"why?"
"why not do the back too?"
and "why not at least do a decent job of sanding the front?"
