The seller has obviously been affected by the toxic water in Flint. For that matter, so has whoever appraised it.

wtf...? :o
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Untreated siphoruse on your wood can lead to complications. Like confusing this with a 1965 Fender.

It was a 'stick guitar'?

I guess somebody took a 1965 Fender *something*, turned it into a Steinberger, then re-built it into a no-name solid ES-335-shaped instrument using exotic woods.  :o Or it is some '70s Japcrap or random sub-Alembic hippie sandwich builder's output.

I wonder who did the appraisal. I've heard that Gruhn is off the boil these days and will evaluate something from photies if you pony up $50.  :mrgreen:

I doubt if any part of this was ever a Fender.

Gruhn has done photo appraisals for over 20 years, maybe much longer, always with disclaimers. I suspect this appraisal was done by some drunk the seller found lying drunk in the gutter.
