| This guitar is nice, but not mint.. I would give it a 7.5 out of 10 due to it's age and finish/binding checking, it has been re-finished and is/has a gibby looking tear-drop burst to it. the top is flat, action is fair, and there are still 2 shims under the saddle..
was originally a stacked knob stereo, but has been upgraded with NEW OP PRO and XLR with 4db boost button from an ADII, and has a brand new opp in it as well. Mike L.(CrimsonLake) did the upgrades for me and came out really nice. only one hole/plugged filled for the upgrade(where tone/vol was by neck) all other pre-existing holes/penetrations were filled by the xlr/1/4 pcb and the boost button went in where the old battery hold screw was on the waist.
looks good, sounds good, and great for gigging or recording
Hand Laid fiberglass deep bowl, wide neck, 12 frets to the body, double fan braced and AAA top.. Neck/frets in good shape and no finish cracks or checking/dings on neck or headstock.
includes ohsc in fair shape, has a heat bubble/burn on it.
$600 shipped and insured conus.... OBO.. over 500
I'll have some pics available for interested parties.
Thanks,
Glenn |

| I just re-evaluated what I have in this one, and my asking price is a little high in comparing to recent sales on the bay. the OP PRO and Boost/xlr are a nice upgrade..
so....now offered at $525 shipped conus, or make me a fair and reasonable counter-offer.
Thanks,
Glenn |

| OK, I finally got my camera back from the daughter who is a new mommy and new Mary Kay rep who needed it for the before/after pictures at her make-up parties(scary!), and to take pictures of my beautiful new grand-daughter Lydia Lynne Rindge.
I've had some requests for photos on this.. and before it hits the bay, I thought I'd give you all a look.
pretty nice for an old gal... but it does have its share of character covered by nut-brown paint as well.
Thanks,
Glenn |

| Thanks for the work Mike! hopefully this one will pay for the repairs on the 1537.
next up.... OT, for sale... Not your kid's Turser or Samick... The hot-rod proto is up for sale to fund the others in CT and soon on the way up.
Thanks,
