SOLD: Scheerhorn R-body #12
I have, with a lot of regret, decided to part with my R-body Scheerhorn. This is guitar was built by Tim in 1990. It has been a player's instrument and shows some wear and tear (in particular, there are some dings and blemishes on the top), but remains a beautiful guitar made from highly figured curly maple and has the classic R-body Scheerhorn sound. It has a contact pickup between the screens and a condensor mic (Shure SM-98) installed on the cover plate; Tim's old practice was to run these to a stereo jack built into the end pin, rather than to a separate jack, and that is how these are wired. I long ago stopped using the electronics and they come as is.
The original tweed case long ago wore out and has long ago been replaced with a custom Pegasus case (bright yellow exterior, purple interior), which I include with price. Since the fall of the dollar, these cases have become quite expensive.
Thanks to my good friend WWW for taking some pics for me. The light was not quite right, and there's a bunch of flash, but this gives you an idea. I am happy to email more and better pix to anyone interested.
I am asking $5500 for the guitar and case. Buyer pays actual shipping costs.
