Hmmm... I just took a look at a gorgeous Nonrev Bird. There's also a Violin EB1.

Everybody assumes it's from a belt. Coulda been a codpiece, or some kind of piercing... ;D
Is something up with that truss rod nut on the 'bird? Looks like its been shaved down.

I think Buzzy has too high of a price tag on that as well, but "second" usually only meant that there was a finish or other cosmetic flaw. Not like the factory did a headstock repair on a Monday morning. ;D

It looks like there is a problem with the truss rod. The nut is sitting out of the recess some, and the wood between the TR nut and the string nut is pushed out. I wonder about the playability.

BTW I am using the Microsoft browser and it works fine.

Yeah, buckle rash means one thing - codpiece rash just makes me think of the plague.

I wonder how long bacteria can last in a moist EB case...  :-\

Works in IE7 for me.

He's a vintage dealer in the greater NYC area. Of course his asking prices are going to be high.

If the recession continues, you'll probably see a major shakeout in the vintage market.

Like forever - well, mustiness, anyhow. My '72 EB-3 is nicknamed "Stinky" for a reason...

Firefox, actually. Every other link on that page works except for the basses link. It does work in IE, though.
