    Default What would tempt someone....

    ....to do this to an otherwise attractive blue Epi LP Std. Plus Top? Lord save us. Saw this on our local Craigslist. I can see where "comes with original pickups, rings and knobs" would be a strong selling point. And that's not even considering the non-matching gold wrap-around tailpiece with black mounting bolts....

    The rainbow strap adds to the otherwise "uniqueness" off the guitar

    Probably screwed the tailpiece all the way down and the strings fouled on the back of the bridge. Setup mistake no.1 with TOM/STP arrangements.
