“Guitar is in good physical condition with some light scratches and a few small dents in the metal”

Well, except for the 47,000 1/8th" deep holes drilled in the headstock.
If it wasn't for that I think I'd buy it...... Rolling Eyes

Oh well, the listing (on my server) says "may not ship to Canada" so I guess I'm probably out of luck.

I think if you pay $8K for it your initials should be "AH" Very Happy

I wonder who came up with the fake nameplate?
It has to be a Rickenbacher. Very Happy

Betcha the guy's name (AH) was Huntington and so he just adapted Rickenbacker Electro to that for a bit of personalization. As if the drillwork wasn't enough Smile

"One string is loose."

Buyers beware. One string needs to be tightened.
