With the new neck and pots...what would this guitar be worth?

If no more work is needed, then I'd say go for it. If he is just including the neck, that's another issue. These are set neck guitars with a glued in joint. You will pay for bench time to have it fixed. Personally, I would go for it if I could come out with a playable guitar for under 500-600 bucks.
Here's one on CL for $550 which looks to be in pretty good shape. http://austin.craigslist.org/msg/912173724.html |

Sounds like a good deal to me! The headstock on my les paul broke once, but after the local repairguy had it for a day it was as good as new. Didnt cost much to fix either.
Didnt need a new neck, it just took some glue. This post has been edited by Trond Vold: Nov 24 2008, 04:02 PM -------------------- Guitars: Schecter Stiletto Classic, Jackson SLSMG, Ibanez RG-380 Japan, Gibson Les Paul Studio

QUOTE (skennington @ Nov 24 2008, 03:43 PM)  If he is just including the neck, that's another issue. These are set neck guitars with a glued in joint. Good point! I don't know how luthiers does that but I've heard of one method with a sharp waterbeam to "cut" out the glue and remove the neck. That or steam works on glue. Not sure how you'd do it yourself. -------------------- My bands homepage

I would say you will have to pay at least that much for repairing mate, so choose wisely.

Well I would be very careful with this one..It may not be worth it..Its possible to repair it , but It can be expensive and who knows if everything work well (and if Luther is able to repair it) and how the guitar will sound...I don't think the guy would be selling it for that price if you only gotta put on the new neck (which is included) and few pots
I wouldn't gamble with this one, rather save more money and go for a used one in working condition or even a new... This post has been edited by Bogdan Radovic: Nov 25 2008, 12:46 AM -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

No my friend the neck is set on Les Pauls. It's very tricky to do it properly, so I suggest you stay away from this offer
