This looks like a good guitar. After market tailpiece, but the guitar itself looks to be in good shape. I can't recall seeing another in such good condition. No reserve.

I'm not sure but that might be the stock tremelo tailpiece but the arm is missing.

By the way, I am VERY hurt by your comment "I've never seen one in such good condition." I'm sure what you meant to say was "I've never seen one FOR SALE in such good condition." ha ha

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		Looks like the tailpiece has been modified. The part where the pring sets just cut off, and the arm removed.

I stand corrected. I've never seen one on ebay that wasn't for sale by a good friend that was in that good of condition.

Miles is right. The tailpiece is original, but has been modified.

Location: UK		Does the price look right? It's at $250 now, I'd have to add shipping plus import duty, the last one I had shipped was a bit less than this one's coming out at but it looks in pretty good condition. Any idea what it should go for?

Location: SoCal		This Tornado went for $621. That's a high. Good pics and good story make a difference.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		I wonder if the buyer is going to be a little upset when he/she finds the bridge hacked up.
