A nice buy for someone locally.

It's in very good condition (with a pup swap). Despite the plain-Jane finish, this model is a killer player and very light on the shoulder.

The seller has mis-indentified it as a 315 and I've notified him. He also seems a tad testy judging by his language so I wouldn't recommend "negotiating" with him!

CAD$400 *Firm* w/light case

Well, there is NO pickup in the neck position and I dont remember gibson using notched speed knobs.
I guess that could be a gibson pickup in the bridge position but I am unimpressed by that almost as much as I am the gibson strings.
Oh, and I also dont believe its hand carved...

I'd go $275. :D

This model has only one pup, it's an AV310, not an AV325 eh?
Catalogue scan sent to seller:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nGGIl533-xPeuIUi4xqVEiXZiEtA53P5/view

Yeah he's wrong about the knobs of course, they're original Mats.
The pup swap? Who knows, probably OK.
Mine has the MMK45 and she roars just fine! (see my current avatar)

Hand carved? Not bloody likely, but the Avenger body is very comfy. :love:

p.s. With the current exchange rate of about 33% (ouch!) your $275 becomes about CAD$368! So you're not too far off.
