Well at least for Today while the Sudafed and Chinese Mustard are in full effect... I'd like to sell this Project.

For the price I'm asking you could probably part it out and make money.

I'd prefer that you play the snot out of it instead though!

This is a fairly nice Preacher Deluxe body and a brilliantly figured neck (from Talbot's basement) set up and energized with Active electronics recently repaired by Dr. Numbfingers himself.

a couple of dings, a mixture of Chrome and Gold but it sings beautifully!
$550 plus shipping.

Take a look at the Condition Cam

:D

Woody,

That neck and head is a work of art! NICE!

BTW, I've often wondered why not put matching screws in the two old tuner holes?

Interesting that it's got the switches on the p/u's to go from single coil to hummer, like the UK II. My Preacher 12 doesn't have those...

I believe this one has a 'questionable' past, to put it in the lingo of your trade.

These parts have been in the hands of several OFCer's and possibly (dare I say it) a PRE-OFC Ovation Fan.

Iffy, I like the way you think... now pay up!

It came to me originally as a Preacher Deluxe with neck issues so I lopped off it's neck and squoze in the PD neck.

Actually, they're series/parallel switches, not coil taps.

Oh well, the Hamer Newport 12 has escaped me:
Hamer 12

so I'm not in a hurry now and it may or may not be available at this price.

But now that I've started looking at the Hamer models I think I'm in deep GAS trouble... :eek:
