Impulse 101 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 It's the angle of the first picture. The second one is more straight on and you can see the real position of the low E. The saddles are piezo but the entire bridge was made my Fishman. It's like a higher quality version of the American Standard bridge. Very solid and has a nice, even sounding tone with added sustain. Every paint chip and dent was lovingly deposited by my own carelessness. It was pretty when I bought it. JT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slinkie Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Guys, guys, let's not fight. And I'm spamming it because I'm hoping SOMEONE will be interested enough to want to buy it; it needs a loving home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, according to an expert they do, I suppose it depends on the guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave. Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 you so funny. Lol, is it that obvious? It took me a minute but I copped it when I was typing it. It'sa stunner though. I'd love to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinkie Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 She sounds as good as she looks. The guy I bought it off had it professionally set up so she plays beautifully. But yeah, she is expensive, but I go to a lot of collectors fairs with my stepdad (he's in antiques) so hopefully someone with the cash will see it and fall in love with it. She needs a loving home and someone who will play her, not put her in a glass case or mount her on the wall (yeah, the guitar is a she now) I recently found out as well that the flight case alone is worth like, £500, so really it's only £1475 for the guitar.

Slinkie Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 In ten years time she'll be worth around ten to fifteen grand so you know... I might sit on her and wait for a while, but I can't play her so really it's a waste, she'd just be sitting in her case waiting. </3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hang onto it for now because the vintage market is pretty deflated at the moment, once the economy starts revving back up it might be worth around $5k. Still a nice return, depending on what you paid for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboMansonMB-1 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Hate to burst your bubble, people with too much money will pay anything for nothing. They'll pay $25k for a 1954 Les Paul Goldtop or $1,000,000 for a 1959 Les Paul Standard because they're historic and sound amazing, but $15k for a CBS-era Strat just isn't gonna happen.
