Two questions?

If that's a Glen Campbell, shouldn't the fretboard be signed?

Is it an acoustic only?

If it was cheap enough, would it be worth sending to the factory for repair?

What a shame. Such a nice guitar to be treated so badly...

I think it would cost WAY to much for repair. New neck/headstock, new bowl...

I've emailed the seller to ask if he / she would consider selling me just the truss rod cover. I have a '78 GC 12-string that I bought used, but the previous owner added his own personalized rod cover which proudly reads "Fernando." I got a GC rod cover from Kim Keller a while back, but it's just a tad too short and doesn't completely cover the access area for the truss rod, although I put another one just like it on my '73 Legend and it fits that guitar perfectly. So apparently the truss rod covers got a little larger towards the mid-late seventys.

would my 6 string folklore neck fit on this? would the top fit my bowl? that is currently on a guitar someone put a set of eppauletts on. guess they were into holes. i wouldn't need the truss rod cover. maybe something could work. at least there is a case too.

if nothing else it would be good for the slalom ski photo i have always wanted to take.

Hmmmmmm.......4 tuners on one side, two on the other. I GOT IT!! It's an MOB "variant"! Seriously, I'm pretty courageous, but I don't know about this one. There's no mention of the action, or neck/body joint. If I could get it for the current bid, with shipping, it might be worth a "go". Otherwise, keep on truckin'.
