I love mine, the sound is very bright for being a full hollowbody. I actually paid a similar price for mine, but it needed major work to the top around the neck pocket before it was playable. I love it now and have gigged with it many times. My only complaints with it are the tuners (or perhaps the "string tree") which do not keep it in tune very well, and the neck profile being so thin that my hand starts to cramp after a while.

To me that sounds like you've made this thread to say 'is this a good deal?' as well as to test for interest for potential profit. If that's true then it doesn't belong in the classifieds as you aren't genuinely selling anything.

I'm getting a bit sick of these no price no picture ads. This one isn't even really for sale from the user, shouldn't it go in the "other guitars" section where good craigslist finds go?

Ebay is for auctions. Shortscale is for being straight up about what you want (where possible) and being forthcoming with what country you're in so people can factor in shipping costs. Offering Bro deals is a fantastic thing to do but only if they're straight up. Why?:

The dynamic set up by this kind of vagueness ("Make me offers but it might go on ebay") isn't a good thing as your intentions could be (and probably are) perfectly honourable, however from a buyers point of view it sounds alarm bells especially as no one has really got to know you yet. Saying that you are looking to give something cheap, but asking for offers, implies taking the best price offered...which is an auction of sorts and not the same thing as offering a bro deal. Not to mention the caveat that you might just flip it on eBay anyway.

This isn't an opinion, it's a fact based on previous examples: This is just going to be a repeat of that Ro S (?) chap's thread....and in all fairness he turned out to be cool enough once everyone started to talk reasonably and he took on board why people where getting spiky about it.

Don't take my words personally, just being up-front based on the response of members to threads like this in the past and in the hope of avoiding a downward spiral of bad feeling.

That being said if you'll accept 25 english pence I'll take it.
