In the end I'm going to pass, it's a £1, 000.00 guitar with £150.00 worth of art on that I wouldn't be in for more than £400.00 https://inkie.bigcartel.com/ and I'd ask £1, 500.00 open to offers and that's me paying my bills and I doubt they'd accept what I'm willing to offer.

Serial number would indicate a guitar built in August of 1998.

 

Some problems with the guitar, in my observation.

 

A The Paul model from 1996 thru 1998 would be a 'The Paul II'.

 

The truss rod cover should read, 'The Paul II', accordingly. Not 'The Paul'.

 

It's well worn and not all that clean, aside from the custom paint job.

 

Worth, according to Fjestad's Blue Book, about ₤275, in that condition.

That doesn't account for the artwork.

 

 

In the end, crazy-overpriced.
