saemola said:ehm, I may appear a little stupid but... that's sarcasm, right?mellowgerman said:saemola said:btw, I got a reply from the seller of that ebay auction:
"There are no repaired cracks structure is good. The starfire plaque appears to be original but headstock was oversprayed and logo put back on. There is a replaced trc that is glued on to prevent access to the truss rod. no problems with the bridge"
Well then, this may be the only factory-original-starfire-dog-tag-on-headstock bass in existence! That easily makes it worth 3x what he's asking!
You're not stupid. Sarcasm doesn't always translate well in print. I think it is safe to say that the silver tag never saw the inside of the Guild factory. In other words we don't agree with the seller when he says it "appears" to be original as interpreted to mean "came from the factory that way". Doesn't make that much difference - the headstock has been reworked anyway.
