What is this steel?

Post by Cliff Scholle »

My house burned in 2008, and I lost most of my documentation. I can't for the life of me remember the model of this steel. Double neck, trapazoidal pickups, old..... Also, if any of you know the reasonable value of this guitar, I would appreciate your input.

Looks like a Fender Dual 8 Pro Console.

Here is a current auction on a Fender like yours. Seems like an inflated asking price though.

Thanks, guys. Yes, it's all coming back to me. A Dual Pro. Jeez, my brain is porous. I don't like eBay, and yes, the price listed there is undoubtedly inflated. When I sell mine, you will see it on the forum. Thanks again.

Im actually looking for a Dual 8 Pro and this auction made me mad, its way too overprice, one thing I like about buying steel on the forum is that the price is fair but on ebay its just crazy!
