Ebay Item #120170301644   Fox Username: Fox Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 7:14 am:    Chips, might be sort of "gather parts & assemble"-job.. Only guesses here: Blazer body (bridgetailpiece is same as in Blazers and SB70) with spare Musician neck (no serial on the back of the hstock) Pickguard/pickup assemby self-made.. Body wood could well be sen-ash w. mahogany stain, as in SB70's.. Let's wait for other opinions, though.   Guitarwhisperer Username: Guitarwhisperer Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 7:46 am:    I don't see any grain lines in the closeups. I put the picture on my hard drive. I put the picture on my hard drive and magnified it. The resolutions not great, but no apparent grain lines. It has the clor contrasts of claro walnut, but the swirls make me think it's bowling ball resin! I don't know. It's strange. If it is wood, looks like a walnut to me.   Dave_g Username: Dave_g Registered: 1-2002 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 8:00 am:    There is a entire thread on this model   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 2-2001 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 8:20 am:    It's an '82 ST60. Laminated mahogany body with something they called a "Brazilian" finish. It's in the 1982 Blazer and Studio Electric guitar catalog   Gemberbier Username: Gemberbier Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 8:40 am:    Wooaahh! Have you seen that BIN price? 888 bucks! He should open these eights and make that 333. Ginger   Gemberbier Username: Gemberbier Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 9:02 am:    Hey, I missed those 4 knobs... so... Then add $100.- for the presence of 4 Super Grip ONE knobs, which easily do $25.- a piece. Ginger   Jeffsailor Username: Jeffsailor Registered: 1-2004 Posted on Tuesday, October 09, 2007 - 12:38 pm:    The finish on the ST 60 is faux wood grain. Like Johns points out, the body is laminated mahogany similar to the constuction used in Custom Agents. The price is way out of line. These usually pull in around $225-$275. js
