Re: price advice - in the maket for a "player"-grade singlecut 55-58 Special
We didn't establish what was on a guitar. If a player grade Special has most of it's parts it will bring over that. Now if it has major damage and missing most of it's parts, that's a whole nuther situation, and the same goes for any guitar in that catagory.
I do look forward to your restoration progress pics, please update us when they come. :dude: :hippy
I bought a project '57 Special yesterday on MLP. Broken headstock, bad paint, some vintage parts (P90s, pickguard, tuners, knobs). By the time it's repaired, refinished and using repro parts for what's missing, it should come in close to that $3500 mark. Maybe just a tad over depending on parts.
A pretty inexpensive player IMO.
