Translation: I bought this off some old timer, told them it was a POS worth about $50 for the parts that haven't been ruined or chucked, now I'm sticking it on reverb for more than the price of a clean one because I am totally lacking any shame

Seems okay. How much was actually irrevocably changed? Some screw holes for pick guard, plunger for mute? anything else?

From @notaluthier on Instagram :
with all the crap removed after he got it :
An old Regal Le Domino acoustic guitar, probably from the 20s, 'modified' for use as a prop in the movie Alita : Battle Angel

Routed at home for the new pickups. All the original hardware, pickguard and electronics were sold off. I drilled the mute to fit the Mastery just for aesthetics, it was non operational.cestlamort wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 12:33 pmSeems okay. How much was actually irrevocably changed?

whoops. I somehow thought this was a JM/Jag mashup. Routing for pickups isn't a big deal, when compared to the really egregious stuff we've witnessed here.

I should have done it to a less desirable guitar.cestlamort wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 12:58 pmwhoops. I somehow thought this was a JM/Jag mashup. Routing for pickups isn't a big deal, when compared to the really egregious stuff we've witnessed here.

Messaged him asking if he got it for this amountfrom the original listing I saw and he replied with “nah too much interest” what’s wrong the fuck that means/yeah, ok, I’m sure people were World War Z-ing at this guy’s doorstep driving the price up literally 10x you fuckin jabronisimonhpieman wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 7:36 amThat dude literally bought that 2 days ago for maximum $300.

Just been looking on eBay. What on earth is this!

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1966-FENDER- ... SwBG1cxh5G
I think the broken E is the least of its problems!966 Fender Mustang - made & fired up in the USA:
* alder body - VERY HOT REAL RELIC
* maple neck with CHARCOAL FINGERBOARD - missing some frets & all dots
* all chrome parts are very tarnished
* tuner buttons in melted condition
* broken E string ( can be replaced easily )
* an interesting conversation piece for long winter nights......
* also a great X-mas present....
