Few bits to fix and confusion over which model it actually is but if i were nearer I'd jump on it.

Interesting. The pic of him playing (assume it is him), shows humbuckers, looks like a CP.
If anyone wants me to go look at this I can.

That is cheap.

I suppose it will be cheap, though, given that it's made of wood, which is only slightly less cheap than plastic.

If I was local I would be all over that, but fuck a 7hour+ round trip to discover the seller is a fucking joker!

Them pics have been blatantly robbed from google images (or similar)

Yeah, pics are clearly not of the guitar (at least, in its present condition).

But - "volume and tone spindles are missing aswell" ?

I can't see that it's a rip-off in the same league as Mike's great amp swindle - surely you wouldn't say that it was in bad condition if you didn't actually have something to sell? Might be worth going round to look at.

It's probably beat to shit but genuine. This one is clearly a stoner rather than a scammer.

Or a thief.

Not to go casting aspersions around about someone I'll never know or meet, but it is very cheap.
