Hi everyone. Every now and then, I think about my used Breadwinner I got for as a 1st year anniversary present. I thought I had some pics here but must have on my computer at home as I am at work right now. The guy that traded it in (back around 1981-82) according to the dealer at the time, played in a band and there is some paint of the pick guard I guess where he picked and he must have wore a belt buckle as there is a small area (size of a quarter maybe) on the back worn off. Guitar is all original (except for strings and replacing the battery connectors). I thought back then and up to now, I would play more often but other things have taken priority so it has only been played a few times in the last 40 or so years. All works good and a nice sound. At the time, my wife was going to buy me a cheap new electric and the owner then told me about this used one. When both were hooked up to an amp, it clearly was a no brainer to buy this used breadwinner with original hard case. Every now and then, I get to thinking maybe I should sell but just cant seem to bring myself to sell it (only paid I think 350 for it back then. Back a couple of years ago, I finally broke down and bought a Marshall vintage tube amp (50 amp?- cant really remember lol) but again, only have used it once or twice and has been put back in the original shipping box.
Sorry for being so long, just wanted to give some history on this guitar.

I just clicked on your link in your post and when I select a drop-down, I get an internal server error. Not sure if it’s me or your web page.
