So found this online for under $500 how much would you guys honestly pay for this? I guess someone had placed a floyd rose and this new player put back a fixed bridge. I really wanted a gibson explorer that I could have painted and possibly a drop d tuna placed on the guitar..........but would this guitar be worthy of that if I can get a good price...and how much realistically would I have to invest to get it repainted, a new bridge installed, etc. ....

Or am I in a dreamworld about drop tuna..dont know much about it actually besides the fact of the e to d in a pull...do you guys recommend the d tuna live? If that is not recommended what do you think about the bridge right now and is that fixable once painted?
 
No fucking way.

I paid 450US$ for my Gothic Explorer. It was a little scratched an ddented but that looks like arse.

Honestly, I'd pay 200$ for it. That's how much the pickups, hardware and case are worth. The guitar is a total loss, sorry.
