There was another there earlier today. Not as clean but less $$. Looks like it sold.

This one is a partscaster.

The guitar was re-necked with a 3 piece Mahogany neck, with a vintage Brazilian Rosewood board. 

The guitar body was purchased from a Japanese collector and all restoration work was performed by master guitar luthier, Gil Chavez. Mr. Chavez is widely known for his work at Valley Arts back in the early 80's and is a trusted craftsman. 

The cool thing is, Gil modeled the neck from his 60's 335.

He also worked along side Gene Baker during that run if Bakers from around 1998-2003.  

I would have jumped on that '79 Sunburst.
