John with a guitar like that for sale, you need to show it in the title of the post.. The words "electric guitar" will get bypassed too easily...

Also kind of hard to call you when you don't post a phone number.
What's your base asking price? Most vintage collectors I know won't call if no price is listed at all, assuming the seller wants too much. I know don't, nor do the dealers I work with.
And none will call on a guitar like this one even WITH a price when there are no pictures. An owner's opinion of "very good condition" ranges from near-mint to a refinished guitar to one with a rout for a third pickup.
There's absolutely nothing here to grab a buyer's interest.
I'm not being insulting - these are just the realities of the vintage guitar business, which I've been involved with for years.
Good luck!
Jim
