Value wise, I don't know. I'd hope to get a refin with replaced pickups from '76 at sub 2k, but that's me and this is ebay. I don't know the market well enough to be exacting in how much those things de-value the guitar but it just seems like the starting bid is about max of what I'd pay. Then again, since buying my '72, every time I look similar ones are asking higher & higher dollar amounts. :hmm
I'd try and get a better price, but that puppy is cool! I'd replace at least two of the Super D's with PAFs, (Dimarzio of course), but damn! that is a cool guitar. $2k seems kinda high, but deals can be made.
