Ahh, some frets you need more than others!
At first glance I thought there was something like paperclips holding the strings in place....

Yep. Gibson produced 400 in 2011. That is the only known run of short scales I’m aware of. Pickups are the standard modern Gibson Tbird Pluses. Here’s mine with a professional custom Silverburst finish that a prior owner commissioned. Note the pickup placement with the neck pickup close to the neck. Despite its size, it is Thunderous.

Then you're a size 12, are we buying you a dress for Valentine's Day?
Shaving, lots of shaving.

Holy smokes! I'll do $1,400 shipped thinking it'll be about $150 to ship or more and I want to clear $1,200.

Settle it properly. Roller derby!
People actually pay to watch that sort of think. So I'm told.
Like I said, Roller Derby! 8^)
I'd pay to go to a roller derby!
From what I've heard, the skates wouldn't work well in the mud....
We’ll, they are rare. Not an outlandish price in today’s market, if it were in excellent condition. It was has more dings than I’d like were I looking for one. They only came from the factory in flat black.
They still have them in Metro Detroit. Lots of Rosie the Riveters around these parts.
