The pickups are changed, but I have a matched serial set of gold super 80 pickups. It's also been refretted, has a HUGE gash, and doesn't have the original case. Ebay Item #300145658481   Snowjays Username: Snowjays Registered: 9-2004 Posted on Tuesday, September 11, 2007 - 10:27 pm:    I bought one like it in almost mint condition with the original pups for $750 US about 10 months ago, if that's any guide.   Dave_g Username: Dave_g Registered: 1-2002 Posted on Tuesday, September 11, 2007 - 10:30 pm:    Refret, non original pups, edge bash on binding....Pricy at 1/2 of the asking price IMHO....   Jjhuntfox Username: Jjhuntfox Registered: 9-2007 Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 1:16 am:    I don't think a quality refret should detract from the price. If it is done well. That ding, the back of the neck, replaced pups and no pick guard..... not so good. Looks like a player to me. But you do have the right pups for it... Just seems like a lot of money.   Bobzilla Username: Bobzilla Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 7:32 am:    Where's the toggle switch?   Michaelkaufman Username: Michaelkaufman Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 8:24 am:    Where are the vines? mk   Emilio Username: Emilio Registered: 9-2004 Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 8:54 am:    Well 750 US$ is a bargain, everyone knows...here we have another, bad pictures,but....it will be a fight for it .good luck Ebay Item #200149376476   Bobzilla Username: Bobzilla Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 11:38 am:    My girlfriend is passing thru Germany in a few days.... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Could avoid ship costs to USA if she throws it on the plane. Where's a flight case when you need one. Photos are distant though and I can't read german.   Jcmc64 Username: Jcmc64 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 4:33 pm:    uurrgghhh   Guitarwhisperer Username: Guitarwhisperer Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Friday, September 14, 2007 - 10:35 pm:    How come the Germans hate posting pictures? Risky....   Chipsotoole Username: Chipsotoole Registered: 2-2004 Posted on Friday, September 14, 2007 - 11:13 pm:    That's Euro's not dollars remember....   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 2-2001 Posted on Saturday, September 15, 2007 - 9:14 pm:    Wow, the Scruggs ended at $3,261.20. Congrats to SirOliver (r.privat)! Can we see some better pictures when you receive it?   Jcmc64 Username: Jcmc64 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Sunday, September 16, 2007 - 12:24 am:    Isn't that some sort of record for one of these? Seen quite a few of these the past 2 years, but can't remember one ever going that high...not even close.   Siroliver Username: Siroliver Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Sunday, September 16, 2007 - 4:58 am:    the price is always relative. In this case the item is close to where I live. So no transport fees, no exchange fees and no 20 % import tax. The €/USD exchange rate makes european items look quite expensive at the moment. But if you have Euros.......this is not too bad. Anyway I will post a few pictures after I have the git in may hands.   Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 3-2002 Posted on Sunday, September 16, 2007 - 7:41 pm:    That's £1,625 to us Brits. Common fact that some particular vintage Ibanez models are fast becoming a sound and 'playable' investment. six   Jcmc64 Username: Jcmc64 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Monday, September 17, 2007 - 6:56 am:    I bet I know 2 other recent 2671 owners who are thrilled with this outcome...   Bobzilla Username: Bobzilla Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Monday, September 17, 2007 - 7:55 am:    $3,200 and... worth it I'd say. Looked like a nice specimen and congrats SirOliver.   Guitarwhisperer Username: Guitarwhisperer Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Monday, September 17, 2007 - 11:07 am:    Crap, that means the next one'll be even more!   Bobzilla Username: Bobzilla Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Monday, September 17, 2007 - 12:30 pm:    Not necessarily. You can have mine for $3k!   Guitarwhisperer Username: Guitarwhisperer Registered: 6-2007 Posted on Monday, September 17, 2007 - 12:54 pm:    Is it that one with the twisted neck? I'll take it!
