Okay, I have a chance to get an SL2H from a local shop. They say it's a 1987, but I can't seem to find the serial range at Jackson's website. It's the Broken Glass finish, 2 Duncans, original Floyd, neck through, Made in USA.
The serial is U12373 - what is the correct year?
It has two genuine Seymour Duncan pups, but there is some kind of active circuit with a 9-volt battery inside the access cover. Is this factory or did someone add it in? Also, there is no toggle or whatnot to activate the boost or whatever it is. I guess when you plug a cable into it, it's just live.
They're asking $1100.00. Is this a decent price, assuming that they're right about it being a 1987?
I asked their repairman if he can rewire it and make the Duncans passive, bypassing the active boost or whatever with the battery. Thoughts on this?
Thanks!
