EDIT: I’ve left my original post intact for historical reference.
READ THREAD BEFORE THINKING ABOUT PURCHASE
I’m not sure if this post belongs here, or in the For Sale threads. It isn’t mine, and I’m not selling it, but it looks like a pretty good deal.
$3500.

Just a “heads up” for anyone who might be seeking one out.
b0b can delete whichever post is in the wrong forum section.[/b]

| 1950s, not 1930s. Replaced pickup mountings says to me it's probably also a replaced pickup. Overpriced given the modifications. |

Thanks Noah. For a 1950s model, it is in pretty rough shape. Good thing I didn’t jump on it my self. |

overpriced indeed: post WW2, poorly modified w/ non original pickup.
it's amazing what some people think their bowdlerized fry pans are worth.

| There's actually a second nut stuck in next to the original. I have no idea why. It might just be held in by string tension. |
