That's bad, especially when you could just get a body off Warmoth for cheap.

a lot of that sort of thing was done before they had any marked value, like in the 70s and 80s.

That seller has had though guitars listed for years! They've probably spent the cost of the guitars in listing fees, the bronco is the major fail.

The weird thing is he has had the same guitars for sale for all that time... you'd think that the fact that he hasn't sold one in a decade would be a clue for him to lower his prices below the threshold of lunacy.
This Bronco is still the most hilarious to me, by the same jackass.
