Holy crap $1,875.00

The Serviceman is obviously more awesome though because not only did it come from RobertOG, it was also handcrafted by Filipinos [probably old men, old women, and maybe some children] in a stuffy room on the Islands where they even handpainted the decal and probably used old school tools to make. YEAHHH BOOTLEG CAPITAL OF THE WORLD!

upon a closer look it is rather amazing how the two guitars have aged almost into the same color of greenish blue.
you gotta give those philipinos some cred, they matched the color better than fender does.
its just amazing at how similier the paint job is.
