Good price, hope someone here snags it.

Great price!  For $850, who cares about some lacquer cracks on either side of the nut?

I was thinking the same thing. For the price, who cares about some finish cracks? I wish I was local.

If the seller ships international I would go for it. You think I should message? I have a real soft spot for P90s

You should absolutely message.. always ask, the worst they can say is no. Good luck!

I love P90s too, I have a Centaura that you would think early 90s, bolt on hss, duncans, I know what that sounds like.. I put a P90 in the bridge and it is the most delicious Soulful grindy fun thing to play! Totally transformed that guitar❤🎸

There’s nothing like the grind of a P90 through a cooking amplifier.

I made an offer on the guitar.. waiting for a response

Two different neck carves that year. Vintage and the smaller “ regular” carve. FWIW.  I have a 93 and researched here at some point. Original hot P90s weren’t my cup of tea. Installed Wolfetones.

I havent heard back from the guy...  I bet it sold locally..   I had the exact same guitar at one point with a normal C sized neck.. no idea what this one is...

Judging from the cracks I had bought this around 5 years ago and sent it back. The seller said it was cracked in transit and FedEx and Reverb and him worked something out. I got my money back and the seller even sent me the shipping both ways. That surprised me. 

A week later I bought this one for $500.00

It's getting used

I that an import?

No, @neastguy It's USA Special. I had Josh wind a pair of Shlabotnics for that slab of hog. It's a Jr killer!
