pohatu771 Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Unless there's something wrong with it when you get there, I'd buy it instantly. That's less than the cost of a new Studio Faded... and I've only seen those used for $500, once.

max2343 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 Yea they open up in 30 mins and it'll be mine. Just hope it don't have a repaired Headstock. Don't like those.
max2343 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 Monies are real tight right now and these kinda things always pop up when you ain't got it but I'll sell 1 or 2 of my 56 guitars to fund it.

It's got grovers and the bridge and stop bar were swapped out with black pieces/ a sd in the Bridge and large hooks screwed in for stap buttons and must be Dowled to be put back to original and its a 2005
SGFAN Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Just got the low down on this. It's got grovers and the bridge and stop bar were swapped out with black pieces/ a sd in the Bridge and large hooks screwed in for stap buttons and must be Dowled to be put back to original and its a 2005 I would jump on it! A little TLC and it's back to original condition. Well worth the asking price. Good luck.
elessar820 Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 I saw that at my local Guitar Center on Saturday when I got my PRS. That skull and star thing is screwed into the body. It's definitely leave nice sized holes if you took it out. I thought about getting it for a project.
pohatu771 Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 For the cost of a dowel to plug the strap pin holes and a few toothpicks for the tuner holes (assuming you want to replace them) and the skull holes, you could probably use ColorTone Touchup Markers to cover it up. The replacement pins will cover most of the dowel, anyway. Buy the coloured marker (Vintage Amber for the top... put it on heavier for the edge, or mix with Red Mahogany), put it in, and then rub some clear lacquer on lightly on top of it (from the clear marker or elsewhere). http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Finishing_supplies/Colors,_tints,_and_stains/ColorTone_Touchup_Markers.html That's got to be about a $30 repair, buying two markers and the pins.

MikeRom Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 For 600 bones it would have to have something seriously wrong to not buy it. Heck you can change anything and everything on it if you want and have one helluva guitar.
Thundergod Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 I think it looks horrible... if there's nothing wrong with her I would reinstal stock knobs and plastic, same goes for the switch tip. Zebra pickups look great with it, or nickel covers, but that black hardware and black pickup just make her f-ugly... maybe that's why the guy is selling her for that
elessar820 Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Nope, after I saw the skull thing and the screws, I didn't bother. I didn't really examine it otherwise.
Basshole Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 This just came up Today at 599.99. Great Deal ! yea, what he said
max2343 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 I dont like any of the Changes that have been made to at all but at 656.99 with the case Delivered to my house, it's a Done Deal. I'll change it around later and post some photo's of it. Man I love the Finish color on this one.
max2343 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 I got burned on the Damn thing. I talked with a Ed at the store he took my card #'s and I explained to him that It will take 2hrs for my to drive to the bank and deposit some cash to cover it. Then Mr frick-in Ed sold the damn thing on me and when I just called to give-em the O.K. to run the card just now anoyher joker said Cash in the store Trumps a phone Deal. They Suck
MikeRom Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Just watch the bouncing b*o*o*b*i*e*s and you'll soon forget all about it. Tough break man. That would have been one sweet deal.

loneguitar Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 That sucks, if the the dude gave a verbal agreement that should have been enough, but that means nothing nowadays, sorry for the loss bro
