Wow!
I don't know what they did to the headstock, brown paint?
I think this one was up for auction a while ago. Bridge pins instead of string tubes. Weird |

Location: Up North | Yeah, I noticed that too, no negative feedback left for non-payment though. Seems a bit fishy. |

Location: big island | cut and paste of the seller's reply:
"It is as I bought it. I have had nothing done. I alway thought it had the pegs because maybe that is what they did to the older models. I don't know.
I bought this guitar a many years ago and other than putting it out to hang on my wall I have not played it much. Hint why I am selling it. It is as I bought it." |

Location: Nova Scotia, Canada | Yeah, I've seen this user name in regard to a number of O's going back many years. I think I even sold him a basket-case 1970 GC-12 one time.

Location: Up North | Got a reply from seller, said previous auction winner from Japan was non-payer and he had to wait for ebay fees to be returned before relisting.
Curious that he didn't leave any negative feedback for deadbeat bidder though. |
