Nice FX, Spectrums finest

[hobster]

Here is a nice FX in the US. High starting bid, in fact way too high. Looks to be a beauty though, clean looking white FX from 86 with the heelless set neck. Kind of interesting, the truss rod is recessed at the headstock unlike any i have seen with a FT tremolo system. The locking nut is not original, unless it is some wierd transition period between the FT and Bendmaster. Great guitar, i like it

Wow!

God that's desperately pretty... Look at that headstock!! There appears to be something awry with that bridge: it looks a little out of alignment?

[Iceman]

Yeah... an out of alignment bridge. I guess everybody should STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE.

[Westbone]

That's a rare one indeed.
Missing it's fine tuners as well as the 'looks like' stripped string clamp bolts.
Hasn't someone on here got a mass of Spectrums, swap a bridge over. String clamp should be no problem.
Also looks as if the bridge post inserts have come out a wee bit, tap, tap.
If it wasn't over in the US, I'd have a bid. and I'm not even into Spectrums.

I can see nothing wrong with this guitar, although like Westbone, Speccies ain't for me. I think that I have the close vision of a mole. In a perverse sort of a way, when I buy a guitar and receive it, if it perfect it gets slung in a case and left to mature. I am really far more interested in guitars I can improve. That way I can bond with them.

Weird or what!!

So you like to fiddle about???

[hobster]

Yeah, she sure is pretty . Sure seems like a rare one, and i like the fact that the stripe isn't there at all. I have a black one because the stripe is not pronounced at all but this baby is even sweeter. The bridge thing could be as simple as 1 screw being higher than the other, you can see in the picture it is slammed all the way back against the body. $350 seems a bit high, they usually go for under 3 bills. Who knows, maybe its worth that amount because of its rarity. I love my FX, the tone possibilities are endless!! So many variations its almost overkill, they are fun to mess around with thats for sure.

No, I'm telling you guys this one is no good. Now, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT....

Anyone here land this? I was throwing down at Wynn's in Las Vegas when it went off and it slipped my mind... go figure.
