That does look MIGHTY fine, but no thanks at that price...

I find it vaguely amusing that Twinfan's "actual cr@ppy old beaten-to-sh1t one" costs under half the price of a new "re-issue" :lol:

Is it just me or does that look like a 3 piece body? If if is I would have expected at least a select 1 piece body!

From the picture of the back of the guitar, I think it's a one-piece.  Hard to be sure though.
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds
BKPs I Had:  RY+Abraxas, Crawlers, BD+SM

Yeah it's hard to be sure, but I "think" I can see 3 pieces? Dunno, not that I can afford it anyway! Lol

All VOS Sg's are one piece bodies - I have seen this one at Promenade advertised at £2100 which I still think isn't a bad price for a VOS sg with vibrola. A VOS 59 LP would be A LOT more  8)

They are cool - had a go on one last week but its not for me - sounded fantastic mind

That was the one I was looking at to buy new before I got my '65 - £2099 is the cheapest in the UK.  Everywhere else they're £100 more...
