Simon.

The '85 Spoiler was mine at one time; great bass.  The Zebra wood was a sight to see.

Is the '86 Persuader worth the money?

Applejuice, I believe that $1000 for a Persuader in good shape would still be a pretty good deal.

Yes, Persuaders usually trade for much more than the current bid of $750.  And this one appears from the pictures to be in very good condition.  The top wood looks very nice!
