If ya like it, and the price is right, I say go for it.

There's too many variables here to give a straight yes or no answer. If it's reasonably priced and you know you can get it up and running I say yes.

I used to hang around their factory in Coventry a few years back and had a real thing for the Berlin Vintage Classic or whatever it was called. Pink Glow was their coolest colour and... but anyway

Does it have the maple leaf inlays?

And how unfinished is unfinished?

Unfinished - ready for finish,and it's dot inlays :-( but it's a nice bit of wood,so i think i'm going to bite the bullet,and get me another eggle to build (my champagne one was the same guitar only with a maple cap) it'll go along with my charvel san dimas project and my charvel custom (frankencaster) i wonder if i am just getting tooooo many projects ???

Plan to sell em (if i can bare it) and get me a Real PROPER Jem7Y2KDNA !!!! Or RootBeer :-)

duh slaps head,Just out of interest what kind of price would you pay for a set neck berlin V (as far as i can tell) unfinished with no hardware ???

Probably about £250 or so depending on my confidence to get it up and running. I've got too many "bits" around here that just won't ever make a guitar and currently I don'thave the heart to sell any of it

I figure it'll cost you another £300 or so in parts, and you'll have a grands worth of guitar for half price

So for £50 it's a steal then ;-) Out of interest Jono what bits you got? I might be able to persuade you to part with some of it,Mail me at ibanez_rg560@btopenworld.com and i'll start beggin

Where abouts in the UK are ya ?

Regards Rob

Merry Xmas

Yes £50 is a real steal

.

But I'm gonna hang on to the necks and bodies and stuff I've accumulated, cos I know that the day I sell it is the day I'll want it

Go on,You know you *really* wanna sell it all to me lol,I do know the feeling,I have stuff laying around that i am loath to sell in case i need it in the future,I've recently sold 6 full sets of Jackson humbuckers and i still have more left over,But i want em all back..They were like my babies !!!

I plan to build and sell,But all i end up doing is building :-)
