Looks like an excel JB frypan with legs and a Aiello-ish PU.. for 800$ Whoa! I'm not selling it, just throwing it out there.
Must be tax time, I would think that will be worth much more some day.

Being only a six string, and obviously not of the originally approved run, it's $800 tag is about right, but original 8s can be had at that price. The PU is probably the faux horseshoe that came with it, but if it's a real Rick then tack $200 min. onto the tag.

I'm sure it's not one of the original run of JB's made by SHOT. I don't think any of those were 6 string models, and none came equipped with chrome legs. Also the interior of the original cases were not quite as nice as the appearance of this one.

Thats why I wrote "excel" in the post.
I have an original Shot-JB long neck, (#B049), and a fuzzy single console JB. The PU is unlike either one. It kinda looks like an early Aiello MRI PU, like the one on this Sierra lap I got recently. --Which has a cooler mellow tone than the other 2.
Also, when I was on Kauai, there were a couple of folks that wanted to buy a frypan of some kind, so I was posting for that. Fuzzy makes high quality stuff!! Very Happy
