So here is the situation.. A few years ago I purchased a few bodies from a guy in Brazil who was making really nice "knockoff" boutiquish bodies. He kept using real names and getting shut down by feebay. Then he kind of gave up as the boutique guys were tormenting him. I helped him out somewhat and bought some more thinking i would actually use them all. I have finished some and sold some. here are pictures of the bodies in bulk. any interest and i will send more details of individual items. almost all are mahog bodies with imbuyia or brazilian rosewood laminates - both not easy to get anymore. most have maple with several stringer necks ( rosewood or purpleheart). truss rods included. undersized emg35 routes. rosewood or purpleheart fretboards. on average they have cost me between 325-350 except a few that are based on the premier builder (i wont name ) which cost me about 500. I am not looking to make any profit just move out some stuff. i would like to recoup my cost as i paid plus the freight to get to you
