At least I think that's what it is. I get the Pred mixed up with the 3DR a lot.
H / slant S (J200R)
Toothpaste Logo on a reverse headstock
22 frets on a rosewood board
Schaller recessed bridge and OFR style nut (not behind the nut lock)
Dinky body with scalloped neck heel
Ft Worth plate
Includes case, but I haven't seen it
Here's the bad.
1)It's at Sam Ass. They are being dicks about taking anything off because it came in 2 days ago so they say.
2) Possible water issues? Frets oxidized along with the rails on the J200R, some trem hardware (not too bad), some neck bolts, some wood behind the trem looks swollen
3) small part of the tip busted off (gone)
4) the collar on the bridge is busted (needs a new collar)
5) Someone drilled and installed a tone control next to the pickup switch
6) Possible non-original bridge pickup (might just be the cover removed)
7) non-original knobs, and possibly switch tip (it looks like a tele tip?)
The tag says $349. I pointed out all the shit wrong with it. I offered $275. They said $330 + tax (10%), so about $360 out the door. I think I can find a Sam Ass coupon giving me more off than these assholes did.
What do you guys think? This guitar will take a lot of work to get playable. I didn't even bother plugging it in or playing it really because I can see it's a basket case, with potential with a lot of elbow grease.
