Cool guitar but it seems a bit expensive for a Professional series. I hope I put this in the correct section. Mods please move if neccessary.

They probably saw the one on ebay go last week for stupid money.
This ones not even all original.
I'd pay 1K... $1,200 tops, for a minty one.
The one in the ad is fugly.

Am I the only one who doesn't like this body shape?

[rjohnstone]

Play one and you might just change your mind about the shape.
VERY comfortable.

[Bryan]

Yep. I saw that white on on ebay a couple of weeks back. Somebody was real happy with their auction after it was over.

I don't really care for that burst. It's a little odd looking to me.

[mr426]

That is right by my house. I should go check it out.

[Newc]

I do not recall that color being available on those. Maybe in late '91?

[Danacus]

Wow, that is a lot of cash. Looks like it's in nice shape...

It looks like a bad refin. Wouldn't the burst finish have natural wood grain showing through?

Crappy refin... you can see the orange peel in the clear.
Probably hiding some damage.
I wouldn't give more than $500 for it, but that's just me.

Dave L might be able to confirm this for us, but I think this is still original. This finish was available in Europe only, and is a sparkle/metallic variety. I saw another one pop up a few years back. And, yes, way overpriced!

[RhoadsLeeLynch]

I don't really like the way that one looks. I love the PC1 though.

[mccullpl]

I'd love to play one of those (if I ever see one, I will). The curved body must make it a comfy playing guitar.

[Dave L]

Yes, the finish on that one is original! I´ve got one just like it, and I never thought I´d see another one. If this link works you´ll see some pics I posted of it. http://www.jcfonline.com/forums/show...n+professional

Wow... that's an original finish?
I notice yours is shiney... the one in the ad looks "foggy" with an orange peel texture.
