BIN US $295.00
Ebay Item Number #220272367575

This seems like a steal, but I'm no acoustic expert...

Saw this one earlier today. I would have jumped on it at that price, but I'm a bit turned off by the replacement tuners;especially since one has caused new holes in the back of the headstock. Also, take a look at the "finish" crack near the low E tuner. It appears to be on both the back and front of the headstock. Without being able to inspect it in person, I'd be a bit afraid that it's more than just a finish crack.

Boy, the body look good on this one, but the peghead has gotten some "use."

Not a bad specimen, overall, but no I don't think it's a steal.

Spotted this earlier like you guys probably did. This has been re-listed at least once now I'm pretty sure. I remember the suspicious crack in the headstock. The other thing I was trying to figure out was the bridge on this one. The one on my Hummingbird had the usual height adjustable metal slot which in turn held the actual saddle. This one looks totally different. It's kind of hard for me to tell what I'm looking at there, but it doesn't look like it's original either. Undecided

I like that it comes with the hard case though - that's almost a third of the asking price right there. As for the guitar, I'd have to inspect it in person to be sure. It clearly got our attention at $295 though didn't it? Wink
