tomteriffic Posted April 18 Posted April 18 (edited) Hi Guys, longtime member here, even longer time lurker As the want ads used to say, health forces sale and these are gonna hurt. Up for sale is my red '93 Special in very good shape, no breaks or major repairs. This was my "short notice/sit in/go jamming" guitar for years. If I didn't know what I'd be walking into this is what I'd grab. Trouble was, bar neon, refrigerator compressors, etc. didn't play nice with P-90's. So I had the mighty Greg Platzer put in a set of Firebird pickups, like you'd find on an Eclipse. Same rude tone and buzz problem solved. There are a couple or three dents/dimples on the bottom rear corner that can be felt, but not photographed very well and there's a finish chip up at the tip of he headstock as shown. Minimal fretwear, nice comfy medium C neck. OHSC has some nicks and scrapes but is structurally sound and everything works HFC good buddy price: $1,100 or near offer, plus actual shipping. PPFF preferred., My bank isn't set up for Venmo, etc. CONUS only, shipping to be quoted after a deal is struck. Packed to withstand a regional thermonuclear conflict. 🤣 Santellavision's got nothin' on me! I'd GREATLY prefer an in person hand-off if within a day trip driving distance of Dayton, OH.
