What do you think ?
non original bridge.No truss-rod cover.
Is it difficult to get a new wood bridge ?

Hmmm...why is that bridge at such an extreme angle? It could be an indication of intonation or neck alignment issues. The guitar appears to be in 'average' condition, maybe needing a bit of TLC to restore her to original beauty. I would not be too concerned about a truss rod cover. Those can be made very inexpensively.

If I were interested in that guitar, I'd demand a 30 day return stipulation from the seller if not satisfied. Without playing it first, there could be problems that photos simply cannot reveal.

I emailed the seller and asked what his reserve was. I was planning a sniper action, hoping to get it for around $1500 since the pictures were real bad and the guitar not 100% original.

Reserve was set to $3300! Was that a bit optimistic, or? … or?

It went to UK for $3300. I'm surprised, thought he asked way too much!

I think that was a sham listing.... Although the fact that I paid $1500 for my GB20 makes me want to sell it if I can get $3300!

The last item the winning bidder bought was a tube of mascara. Hmmm. I won't comment.

Chuckee,

Yeah if I'd seen that 6 months or so ago I would have chimed right in with yas... now that I am newly married my bride has discovered the wonders of eBay for her cosmetic needs... LOL

I'm not fond of subursts but that was a nice GB20...

Yes, re-listed again. Guess the buyer backed out.
