I don't know but it is the one from ebay a while back. I saved the Serial # for Reference.... It was up for $1000. BIN then as well with no bidders.

Looks like it to me. Garland, TX is a Dallas suburb so it would make sense.

quote from the auction: "This is the first Sunburst that I have seen that has a 1 piece Honduran Mahogeny neck and a 1 piece maple top."

1 piece neck? I'm seeing three pieces.

1 piece top, not gonna even go there.

I was at the Dallas show and did not see this guitar- I saw a white Special, 81 I think- Beat.. That was about it-

Hmmmm...I did not see the one at the DGS but I used to own this guitar a couple of years ago.

I traded it for a Special from an fellow HFCer. Batman set up the guitar and is pretty familar with it.

It does have a three piece neck, if I recall correctly. The break was professionally repair prior to my purchase and I orginally got it from Ebay from a guy in CA I think.

It went to Florida, then to AZ and how the hell did it end back up in Dallas?

I do remember this particular break repair being sold. If I didn't want a Special that had the baseball bat neck, I would have kept it until at least this year.
