Wow! Two in a row! First the 1202T now this. You can bet this won't go cheap.

Too much heel for me (and vintage tuners). It is in great shape for its age!

That's clean.
I'll guess it goes for 750

You're probably pretty much on the mark but I have a hunch it will go higher considering its condition. Amazing for its age for sure!

I've noticed that these auctions end up with guitars selling for more than a good Reverb deal.

The bidding frenzy pulls them into the vortex and they can't get out. It's no longer about the item but all about winning. It's a rush to some. Not me, I'm far too stingy with my money.

I NEVER bid early on to avoid others chipping away at me. In the last minute on goodwill (as they us Microsoft for the servers and they are often laggy) and 30 seconds on eBay. That and I set a max and stick to it no matter what. There is ALWAYS something else on the horizon.

I'm shocked! It went for $501. Someone almost got a good deal.

I'd have been tempted to go that if I liked that heel.
