PSA: GC standard, what is this?

[DaveL]

 

lame pic of course.... but what is this?   the headstock shape looks a little off,  is this a repurposed Greco or something?

GC's used photos are so bad it almost seems like someone is playing a joke. When you click the zoom in button the pic actually gets smaller!

It looks like the image is distorted.  There are a lot of digital photos that have weird perspective.

I noticed that too, especially how the headstock looks larger that it should and out of proportion with the rest of the guitar.

Pretty sure the '80s standards did not have a pickguard

Looks like a PAF that may have been returned?

I remember a black standard being mentioned but was sold before I looked at the picture. Same with the Maestro. Was sold before I could see it.

My PAF from GC is on delay. According to the UPS, the store was closed at 12:49 today to accept delivery. 

Please send prayers that it wasn't stolen or damaged.

Thx HFC!

The MYS Mark Younger-Smith.

He kept the inscription plate from what I understand. Maybe someday he'll send it along. 

I loved the Checkered Vee but was out of my price range.
