endofall Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Hello everyone! Any help possible with this would be great! I have the chance to pick up this guitar for a great deal and everything seems to check out great with it. The seller has been amazing and sent a lot of photos but I just want to make sure that its 100% before I go through with the deal! I don't know a lot about this guitar, I know its an 05 with Seymour P-Rails. TonePros saddle with graphite,and has a hip shot and locking Grover's. Thanks for any help!

Dave F Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I just sold a similar one made in '08. This is an '04 Guitar Center special '68 reissue. The first two s/n digits are the year. Should have the thin 60's neck Naturally the locking tuners and hipshot are add ons. I believe it originally came with '57 Humbuckers The pickups are personal preferences but I think it devalues a re-issue. Don' know what you're paying, but I wouldn't go over $1600 Otherwise it looks real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endofall Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Dave thanks for the response! Yeah, it would be a little more than $1600 so I will see if he will come down just a little! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Here's the one I just sold. It was in mint condition with the stock '57's pups and not nicked up around the head with a hipshot rubbing off the Custom decal. http://www.ebay.com/itm/121067366100?ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1559.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson CS Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 It indeed appears to be legit, however, it's a 2004 model rather than 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
