I am very sadly having to streamline my guitar collection so up for sale are a few items:

An Eclipse 1235-5, I think it's from 1971. It looks like it has been played but is still in good condition. The paint is a little worn on the edge of the headstock and around the edges of some of the body. apart from that it looks and feels pretty solid. The previous owner upgraded the pickups to a P-90 style set, fitted a bigsby tremolo and took off the scratch plate. I have to original pickups, bridge and scracth plate, which will come with the guitar.

£650

A 1975 Preacher, Cherry/Wine Red. A couple of dings but in good condition otherwise. One ding is by the tio volume pot and the other is on the underside near the jack inputs. All original hardware and comes with original hard case.

£550

A 1975 Viper, Natural finish. Mint condition, looks like it's never been played. The bridge has some fading on it, I'm not sure how this happened as it was like that when I bought it, the area around the bridge is unchanged, it's just the bridge itself. The guitar is still gleaming and in better condition that any of my newer guitars. Comes with original hard case.

£650

I am willing to discuss prices if there are sensible offers and I am willing to post but contact me for a quote.

Oops Nevermind.

Oh, and good luck with the sales. People tend to overlook the eclipses, but they are great guitars.

£650 £550 £650 are prices...damned if I know how many QEdollars it is, but most likely we are going to be on the wrong end of the exchange.

Thanks, it's hard to know how to price these, seems to be different in different countries. I've seen the electric ovations sell for between 500 and 900 in the UK so I thought I was in the right ballpark. I am flexible on price but I had to set a price in order to post. I couldn't figure out how to post pics from my computer so if anyone is interested here is a link to an album containing all three:

I should probably make clear that I'm not interested in trades and I'm not interested in selling any original parts, all original parts will be staying with the original guitars.
