Fender Professional refinished obviously. When I first got the guitar the front pick up was weak and thin. It has been rewound by Jason Lollar and works as it should.
The tuner for the 8th string on the front neck broke off from the tuning pan and I had a luthier replace it with a conventional tuner that is completely functional. See pic
Interesting thing is that a previous owner must have rigged up pedals as evidenced by the two holes drilled through the body under the 2nd and 3rd strings on the front neck.
Comes with road case built to fit with storage compartment.
$900 plus shipping

I like that finish--it reminds me of a 50's dinette set

Yeah... Any word on that finish? It's pretty cool. I suppose if folks don't like it, they can sand it down, varnish it, and put down a thin coat of lacquer. I just did that myself. Turned out nice. And the price is so reasonable.

Also, if you want to replace that tuner head with a lollipop, I have one. I also have some single lollipop tuners: 4 left side, one right.

Mark, I’ll leave that up to the next owner. Ironically I first joined the forum when I got this guitar and was looking for replacement parts that were not to be found at the time.
