That's Bob Mothersbaugh in the picture, right?

"Back in 1979, I used a device made by 360 Systems. It was a big box that sat next to your amp and required a special pickup. The 360 Systems people recommended I use a Les Paul, and at the time I was horrified—I thought Les Pauls represented arena rock, long hair, and Puka shells. But I got a Les Paul and took a jigsaw to it with the intention of making it look like a skull. I cut the little horn off at the cutaway and flipped it over backwards and thought it looked a lot better. The 360 was a horrible synth and really didn’t sound good. I only used it for one tour."

200$+, reserve not met! The dude listing this has a real cheek

at some point he will have to come to terms with it being scrap wood that is vaguely shaped like a guitar. Lot of delusion in the market.

Give it to forumite will. He'll match it to some other vintage body remains.
At least all the important parts are still there... :-/
