Even in its dilapidated condition it will still fetch a hefty price. Almost $200 after just one day with 5 more days to go. I know the rich collectors will be all over this. In the right hands it could once again be a sweet player but not without a LOT of work.

My guess is it will break $500 well before the auction is over.

Man that's purty.
It always amazes me how people lose things like control plate and truss rod covers. :toopid:

That boggles my mind as well Barry. The only thing I can figure is they got these as kids and they meant nothing to them. :dunno:
I wouldn't mind owning it myself but I agree it'll probably go higher than it should.

Seems someone wanted it bad enough. About 5 times what I would have paid, there again I'm unaffected by novelty or rarity. Got a PE-R60 bone stock in excellent shape for that much (if you include shipping). I only hope whoever won it will return it to its former glory.
