"Plumbs" have their factory near me and that must surely have come from their catalogue. For those not familiar (Adrian Mole received these unwanted catalogues most of his adult life), here's their typical stock:

(btw, apols for my ignorance. I had no idea EVH did that horrible paint job to the equally horrible Steinberger - double ghastly. I really did think it was a crazed fan's Hohner)

Cant see any issues with this, other than 1 of the photos on the ebay auction appears to show a slight scratch/scuff on the upper horn, but other than that, it all appears to be in order.

So the (truss-rod free) neck has a "slight bow" with just the D-string on it...lucky it's reinforced with that bit of glued in brass Rolling Eyes

You know those "I'm a non-entity, get me out of the jungle" programmes? I always wondered what happened to the kangaroo-dick that they refused to eat. Turns out that they're made into electrics-cavity covers for DIY basses. Every single photo in that auction deserves a place in the "50" that, this year, might need expanding to the "100"
