I'll keep an eye on it. Right now it is a steal but there are still four days and I've expierenced these auctions before. They can go up thousands in the last few minutes.

She is tweak worthy.  Would be tweak-tastic with Alembic electronics... Or maybe the existing package compliments the structural craftsmanship.

Any thoughts on how the top fret intrudes on the metal neck plate?

Notched out for LED wire? (I can't see the detail very well...)


*these would probably be inoperable without the Series II electronics and external power. I suppose it's possible whoever performed these modes configured a way to power the LED's with batteries.

I am wondering if whoever did this didn't have those pickups made to fit the original pickup cavities. Those don't look like any P-90s I've ever seen. Some of you guys with some old-school experience chime in if you have, but these look like some custom jobs to me. It would sure be nice if somebody did not hack this one up.


Here is what a medium-scale Series Guitar looks like without pickups. It happens to be a 1978, made within a few numbers of this one.

Yes. In the Japanese explanation he says he had the pickups made for it.

It's sold. I was out and couldn't bid in the final hours. It sold for about 2,369 U.S.

That's a great deal. I bet it resurfaces in a while, perhaps in some other iteration. I'll keep #78-1046 in my memory banks here!

I've seen this happen before. They usually show up on Reverb for three times as much.
