Not sure I'd classify this as 'badass' personally. looks like someone mitered off the end of the fingerboard.. :?

I'd keep the pinup decal and tape on the headstock - looks cool! At least the "upgrade" looks nice... the fingerboard/body joint does look a suspect though. upper register may have been sacrificed and painted so the the body/neck looks more balanced... a shame to have done so if that's the case....

I don't want to sound like too much of an arse, so I am just going to put this politely:

"I'll pass."

Yeah, I'll pass. The fretboard butchery was just a bad mistake. The seller might be better off parting it out.

In other words, sell the pickups and bridge and burn the rest? :lol:

Notice how none of the pics shows how many frets the neck actually has, n no mention of scale also. I'll pass (wind) too.

The last closeup of the neck at the body shows a dot at the last fret, and no dots on the next 2 frets, which leads me to believe it has 15 frets.
