They're not going lower than AU$750 (approx US$500). It has Bartolini pickups and sounds fat as HELL. I compared it to another '82 SS, all original and it's nice as well.
One thing I'm not sure about is the way the pickups have been wired. The middle tone knob is bypassed and the other one is apparently being used as a "mid boost", according to the guy. I've never heard of that before, but it's been done deliberately apparently. Also, the other tone knob is wired so it's basically either "on" or "off".
Anyway, it's in really nice condition all round. The action is brilliant, and it plays real nice, real nice indeed. I'm just not sure about the tone knob situation.
Thoughts?
