Withdrawn - King Bee Tele relic (Q/sawn Roasted neck, Duncan splitable HB's)

wthrelfall

Will sell now as no offers of a trade.  £1000.

Really nice King Bee, set up well with excellent sounding Duncan PUPs - coil splitting on both with pull pots.
Gorgeous Allparts roasted maple quartersawn neck which is unfinished and silky smooth, 10" radius, Stainless Steel frets in great shape, some very minor wear around the G mainly.
Allparts body, ash I think.  Really nice relic from King Bee, but a horrible routing job on the neck HB - see photos.  Obviously the pick guard covers it and nobody will ever know!
There is a small crack at the underside of the neck pocket at the thinnest part of the wood.  
Comes with a decent tweed Thomann case with key.
Looking to trade for something with a fat neck, open to offers..

Cool looking thing. Approximate trade value? Just saying you want something 'with a fat neck' doesn't really narrow things down too much!

indeed, should have been a bit more specific.  I'm open to considering different things, but not particularly interested in LP's. I have a very nice strat but that's not to say I wouldn't want another with HB's or HSS etc.  There's alot of guitars I don't have and have never tried, so you never know what might tempt.  I guess I wouldn't want anything under £1k in value, unless we were PX'ing.

For what it's worth, here's mine (no longer in my possession). It took me a number of very threatening emails to finally get my guitar from Mr King Bee.

And I too nearly had heart failure when I removed the scratchplate:

Oh my! That is shocking!

I almost bought that guitar on Reverb a few months ago.

Had no idea what was hidden under the pickguard!

Holy shit, I could have done better with a hand drill and a flat wood bit from Aldi

The routing is just unacceptable...shame...lazy!
