The ad reads that it is in need of some repair - I wonder how much repair?
Out of my league, but it seems right off to be a very good price - depending on overall condition..

It can definitely be made whole again, and should be.

| Paul, I sent message thru ebay and asked if I could find out who's name was on the front, or who owned it. At this time they have not responded. I am curious about the price. On Craigslist its for sale at $4000.00. On eBay the bidding starts at $4000.00 |

The pedal rack, pedals and changers do not look like bigsby to me. Looks like a homemade conversion to pedals on the back two necks... Lucker? What say ye?

Wright Pedals, pedal rack and undercarriage.
I imagine this was originally a non pedal guitar. Chuck Wright modified.
No info on original owner. |

| Got a response from the owner thru ebay. They claim they have owned it for 25 yrs, and the name on the front was already removed. Maybe Todd Clinesmith has records of the old bigsbys and could trace thru the serial number. |

Roger,
thanks. Can't say enough good things about Todd. He provided great guidance on the decision making end and worked some miracles undoing previous modifications. the guitar plays like a dream - time machine and tone monster all in one...
Now it's time to look into it's history |
