Not when you compare it to the price of an Edwards or an old Electra

...ya it is in super condition alright, love the finish aswell, in total i'd say you'd be looking at just under 1450e delivered, love those hollow bodies, not the most comfortable to play sitting down if your as skinny as me cos it digs in to your ribs:p , had one before

That's a beauty...a tad overpriced though

Have a look around for an Electra. A mate of mine got a 1977 one for about $700 a couple of years ago and it is just superb, as good as any Gibson I've ever played.

Buying guitars over the net is always a gamble. I've experienced both the good and the bad. With Gibsons you are almost guaranteed to sell the guitar for the same as what you paid if you find you don't like it. That's just the reality of the situation i suppose. ....That Gibson is looking very tempting.
