Just saw this H150 on Yahoo Auctions here in Japan. Do you know if this is a Garry Moore model?

It looks really close, but the shape of the pickguard is not quite right. And I can't tell if it has the signature either.

 

The price is carzy and I'm not planning on buying it, but I was just wondering if it is a pre-Garry Moore model or if it is just a guitar that looks very similar and that has been modded like the Garry Moore model or what.

I see the resemblance but I don't know. Did all the GM models have his name somewhere like on the headstock or something? I think Brent might need to have a look at it.

Could be a 150 deluxe, they had the gut cut and the fancy pick guard like the GM. Usually they had a maple veneer headstock, but I've seen some with out.

I would have thought it a Deluxe as well if it weren't for the EMG pickups... I guess we'll never know. Anyway, the price is crazy and more importantly I do not need another H150 (yeah, right...).

 

Thanks for the input guys!
