Chambered body, pioneering. Possibly it was routed by smearing termite bait on the appropriate parts, organic styley.[/quote]

Aaah it is chambered. I must have missed that. Looks like sh*te tbf

Damn but those termites are good!

Look at the way they've created a routing for a humbucker in the neck position.

You just don't get termites like that any more.

I've seen worse believe it or not. In Sound Control (as was... I think. Not the Jamaica St. one) in Glasgow. 70's Fender Jazz, Sunburst, rosewood neck, blocked and bound, tort pickguard. If I stopped there you'd think it sounded class... except some bright spark had removed the binding on the neck and tried to slim the neck to the new fingerboard width (very badly). They'd also re-routed the pickup routes for bigger than standard pickups (while drunk I think) and modified the pickguard accordingly (also badly - SO much bigger than the pickup routes!). Also battered to hell and back. The sort of bass that any right thinking human being would be take out back and put out of its misery... played like an absolute dog. They were still looking 1700 quid for it... ALL ORIGINAL apparently! LOL
