    Yeah, I thought exactly that Joe, but the second pic looks more neck-thru to me

    Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

      That is correct.. It is indeed "Deco Dream"..

      It's a Fusion too.. Look at the scooped body by the lower horn..

          More like 'badly proportioned nightmare'.

            Dinkys had that scoop for a time as well, so that's not a solid indicator of a Fusion. The mini toggle between the knobs is generally the main identifier between a Dinky and Fusion.

                24 fret so maybe a soloist I can't really tell from the pics how about a back shot.
                Fusion is 24 fret and bolt on.Deff not 80's maybe 91-92.

                  Considering that graphic wasn't available in the 80s....

                    There's no serial stamp on the last fret either, so it's likely a bolt-on. I'm going to +1 the Fusion ID.

                      Its got to be a fusion, its got the toggle and scalloped horn, and the schaller.

                      plus any guitarist worth their mini amp can see that is a 24.75" scale guitar just by looking at the picture.

                        The scoop is not always the indication of a Fusion. There are plenty of Dinkies that have it, plus there is a least one Fusion without it.

                          Yeah, it looks like a short scale. That was what gave it away to me first of all.

                            Not an 87. Early 90's Art Deco Dream Fusion. Not custom, replaced bridge pickup. Not a popular graphic. $500-$600?

                              Hey, thanks for all replies.

                              I have the serial now: 001180

                              He's asking: $1200.
                              Worth it?

                                Is there a letter in front of the serial number?
