Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | I eMailed him and told him that it is a Celebrity. And he thanked me for the info... He just didn't post it on the listing.
It has a 7-digit serial number, and look at the south-end of the fretboard, where it meets the body...
Also no photos of the pre-amp... Must be an OP4BT.
It has a pretty top, but it is obviously laminate...
But real Purdy Plywood.
It was $499 new at MF seven years ago... But let's pull the sticker off an make a profit :rolleyes:
But it Does come with a case, which is nice. Not $1700 nice, but nice.
(sellers hate people like me, cuz I screw-up the count of possible buyers. I've been watching that for days, just to see if anyone bites!) |
