Will upload some more recent pics soon, but I'm releasing this one into the wild again:

It's a really great guitar, but I never liked the V-shaped neck. I was always torn between finding the guitar too good to sell, but not fun enough to play due to the neck. Finally my life situation is forcing me to sell a bunch, so I'm listing this here for sale. Note the humbucker routing under the pickguard, which I've priced in.

Edit: some more pics here: iCloud

Nice guitar!

Looks like an ST80 MR

Can't see the serial number. What year is it?

Should be 1981 based on the serial number.

Thanks. It is not showing up in the photos.

1981 ST80 MR (Metallic Red).

Very cool. Assuming a V neck and lacquer finish. 1954 copy.

It is showing now, although not very clearly. Serial number starts with 1.

Man if I had the space (and wouldn't expect delivery of a TE-70 I just bought last weekend) I'd probably jump on this like a shark. :/

Don't let guilty feelings hold you back.

Last call here as Monday morning is my last chance to go to the post office. Then it's back to Japan for 4 months.
