Do you guys think this thing would even be worth buying to part it out for some profit? This looks really weird, and I don't know if I trust that any of it is vintage.

looks pretty neat, IMO.
I would try dealing it down 50$ and nab it, so long as everything is tight, vintage or otherwise.

I think I've seen that guitar before in the OSG project forum. I'm about 99% sure. I would check, but can't access the website from work.

On second thought it could have been Reranch, I looked at it just a few days ago, but I can't remember.

The decal makes me wonder if it was from a Jag or not. I guess it doesn't matter. The neck alone may fetch a good price. Hard to tell from the rest.

I definitely like it. By this fact alone, you probably shouldn't buy it. ;)

Hey, I live in Cary, but don't need another guitar.... right now. There was a nice 60's mustang at College Music and Pawn by Sadlacks in Raleigh. But he wanted more than I wanted to give.

Really?!? I haven't been in there in years! Do they get a lot of good stuff often? How much was he asking for the mustang?

And I actually live in Cary too!

I think I like it. It's like a Jaguar-lite or something.

I am trying to remember the exact price of the mustang at College Music. It was between 800 and 1200 $US. I took pic on my phone but must have deleted it. It seemed, on brief observation, to be in really nice shape. If you want I will check on Monday to see if it is still there and get the 411 and pics. BTW Billy3000 you need to go check out Guru Guitars right next to Cup a Joe's on Hillsborough. Very cool place run by cool guys. Nice old used guitars, and there own custom stuff. I was playing some of the very low watt amps they have in there. Overdrive at radio volumes. They just did a fret level on my short scale strat.

Also free Joan Jett concert Saturday in Raleigh.

Found the pic

He told me it was a 60 something, but idk. Will go back and double check if you want. I work really close and can walk over lunch. Also School Kids is right next door now.

Yea dude, I'm trying to go to the joan jett concert tomorrow night!

And I've defintiely been in Guru guitars! I go to Cup a Joe quite a bit, so I've stopped in guru a couple times, really nice guys, and I played a really cool '73 Tele deluxe in there about a year ago. My friend said that they were trying to start up an instructional class on how to make your own amplifiers, I've been meaning to stop in there and ask them about that.

My band plays at The Brewery all the time, our next show is June 19th. We're a pop punk band, I don't know if you're into that at all, but if you're not doing anything you should come hang out!
