Market shit
Other than wishing you well with your vintage hunt, and the sale of this guitar. I have zero comment to make on this sale thread.
How very un-modern of me.

I won't comment after this because I think these discussions can derail FS threads.
These kinds of guitars aren't two a penny. The two-thirds "rule" is just a convention which really seems to serve keeping prices low. If you want to buy a guitar like this you might have to search a long time to get one. Any saving on buying it first hand would be attractive. The VAT thing is a red herring in my eyes (but the difficulty for the first buyer and seller and I can see that).
It must be heartbreaking to sell it so I hope the GT is amazing.
I'd love this but I'm putting my spare cash towards more PA gear at the moment. I hope you get a good price and manage to grab the GT.
But not in the ad itself.
I wish jimmy luck with the sale.
For the inexperienced, I can understand why the idea of 'a saving over the new price' would seem to make sense, but the second-hand market just doesn't work like that. There is a very small audience for guitars over £3k, and an even smaller number of people who are able to pay cash to a private buyer (as opposed to using a credit card or taking finance with a shop).
I agree wth @Christophe that, if the buyer needs to make a quick sale, constructive feedback on the price may be more of a help than a hindrance.
Then send a pm instead of ruining the ad.
It's very clearly in the rules that it's not acceptable.
