What's going on with that Duo Sonic? I'm hoping someone's taken the bridge off and screwed it back on wrong and it's salvageable...

Yeah, looks like a Palomino neck or the like. They join at the 15th fret and are standard Fender scale. I made a homemade guitar with one of those necks, not hacking a duosonic in the process.

The seller with that half made neck has got some wild stuff... historic though this may be - if genuine - it's just a lump of hacked around with pine at this point

It is kind of like a museum artifact at this point. (well. ...a poorly-documented museum artifact?)
I'm curious what an actual reasonable price would be for something like this. It is more usable as a curiosity piece than a guitar.
The thought of someone buying that body for any amount of money sounds fucking insane to me, let alone a year’s middle class salary
well, it's just been reduced ... to a mere $42,500

I've seen this kind of thing before, usually has been left leaning against a wall on a wet or damp floor.

The other pictures of the guitar look really nice, but when I got to that one...

...rotten apple.
