Jera Woden Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 its a complete guitar (minus pickups im looking for new ones atm). this thing is solid and heavy but needs a bit of finish work. Quote
unclej Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 hard to say..you didn't say what brand it was or whether the bridge and tailpiece were included. is that electrical tape for the fret markers or inlay..just curious. it looks like it would make a nice guitar when finished. Quote

haggardguy Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 Is that real wood or some form of laminate/ply/chipboard/cardboard? Quote
Jera Woden Posted May 19, 2005 Author Report Posted May 19, 2005 it is real wood looking on the back and in the cavities its two peices of wood with a top glued on. its very nice and feels great. Quote
!!METAL MATT!! Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 But realy What are You wanting for It !!METAL MATT!! Quote
Jera Woden Posted May 19, 2005 Author Report Posted May 19, 2005 im wondering if i got ripped off? i cant find anythnig but a 12 acoustic reviw on ivar johnson. ps i paid $60 for it Quote
Nalo1022 Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 doesnt look bad for 60 if all the ahrdware was included....depending on wat the tuners and headstock are liek may sway my opinion tho but so far looks pretty good Quote
!!METAL MATT!! Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 Did It have pickups when You got it? !!METAL MATT!! Quote
Jera Woden Posted May 20, 2005 Author Report Posted May 20, 2005 no pick ups when i got it but when i heard about it i was going to stick some gibson 57's (maybe havnt decided yet) in it. Quote
!!METAL MATT!! Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 Well Looking at it man Im not put off by it at all, It look's ok so I would say You did Good for only 60.00 bucks !!METAL MATT!! Quote
GregP Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 If it's real wood and the neck is straight and playable, you did fine. Quote
Robert_the_damned Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 looks very very nice for $60....I would have probably paid double that (at a push if I didn't already have enough projects lieing arround!)..... all you need is a pair black pickup surounds and gold pickups and then you'll have a beauty of a guitar Quote
