Good eye, Dave. I probably never would have noticed that. Did they actually make them in a left hand configuration, or was it a special order?

Even at 500 bucks, a trip to the ship for a refurb would put the total over a grand. That's getting a little steep for me.

It's a reversed image, I can tell because of the Canadian flag :D

No, really it is reversed!

The photos suck. The saddle is wierd. From the description that the volume and tone controls don't work it looks like the electronics are by-passed and the pick-up goes straight to the jack.

At least one of those cracks appears to be in the wood.

Is this lefty or is the photo reversed?

Too many problems. A factory fix-up with new electroncis will be over $700. NOT a good deal IMHO.

Several of the pictures have been reversed. Note which side the fretboard tapers on, and you can see the knobs are on the bass side. That bridge looks nasty, too.

In my original post I had described it as being "rode hard" I changed it to "a players guitar" I should have stuck with my first impression.
Looks like he's been using it for a baseball bat.
