ok so what do you guys think?

tonerider pure vintage pups, wilkinson trem, shaller locking tuners, warmoth body and neck. plays smooth as glass too. the neck reminds me of my MIA 50th ann. fender deluxe.
what would you pay for this? it does need new strings and a set up.

That is one SWEET looking axe. The neck looks like it has some nice flame to it. I'm wondering what kind of deal you got, but knowing you, you probably got it for a song. All quality parts too. I love my Warmoth neck. Congrats on another nice find.

yes its real flame top.
hey kong yep you know im always looking for a deal.
the guy i got it from is the music youth worship leader at a local church.
he told me he got it in on a trade from a guy for a 4 wheeler along with some other odd and in's. (deer season means everything to a lot of these folk in his area and a quality 4wheeler is just as important to them as the location they are hunting)
he said he tried it at church but really didnt like the whole electric thing, he liked his acoustics better. at first i was in doubt ya know. so when i went to meet him
his parents were there and confirmed the story so..........i gave him his $250 asking price and went on my way. :D cha-ching!

$250 was a good price. It looks real good. The body almost looks like one of the Squier quilted tops. I'd say you got yourself a nice deal. Enjoy

Perhaps the value of a great playing, great looking guitar is "priceless" :D
Looks like you got a hell of a deal.
Way to improve the quality of your pictures, and make them bigger, is increase the resolution setting on the camera, if you can. Higher resolution improves quality.
Congratulations.
