Standard production 1187, with what may be a FD14-type preamp. Possible later factory installation. It appears to have a foam headstock overlay & CWK2 signature which would make it early to mid 80's. The signature of course knocks several hundred off the value.

Paul I agree but I would like to see the label to see the model designation: about the signature; wow, I'm bummed because my '88 1988-5 has his signature as well...having it devalued by a few hundred is a shock (lol).

CWK2, love ya, mean it!

looks like a pretty normal guitar, need more info on it.
Only a few hundred off the price? Used to be a grand. I guess now that it's preFender the devaluation is less!
