Not as proud as some of the prices I've seen for similar and even lower models. Got an 800 a couple of years ago for $400 with OHSC. Got lucky. Looks to be in fairly good shape.

Tuners wouldn't be hard to replace. Grovers would probably drop right in. I wouldn't leave it like that. Pretty much defeats the purpose of sealed tuners.

$100 shipping. :no: I just shipped a guitar to New Hampshire for $43, double boxed no less. Must be Kevlar bubble wrap. :D

The 800 is one of the sturdiest guitars I've ever owned. It is one solid piece of wood.

The Chainsaw case is worth something, at least $200, no?

I should make an offer but I'll pass.

So, are you the proud new Papa? If so did the seller make a deal with you?
