Price seems stupidly high to me given it's been routed so much and doesn't come with original pickups or bridge.
But I bet it plays nice and probably has at least one good sound :)
What the hell do all the switches do though?
And where did all the logos go?

I saw that one and wanted to pull my hair out. And I've seen (and owned) my fair share of molested guitars and basses.
Personally, I wouldn't pay more than $200 for it, and even for that I'd have to see it in person.

I think that all those empty jack daniels bottles in the pics answers some of your questions :)

They're dreaming at that price. "true vintage vibe and tone" my ass. Amateur refin.
It's worth whatever used tuners, bridge, and Model One would bring. Maybe a few dollars more if the P and J pickups can be identified and have some value.
