Sold: Hague Greenie '59 Replica - Build a Burst

[Architect]

Up for grabs is an absolute stunner "Greenie" Peter Green/Gary Moore '59 replica from Steve Hague. As far as I know the only one Steve ever created. This recreation is incredible and so close to the original in terms of aging and appearance. This was built in 2016.

These are the original pics, current pics coming.


Here is the original build thread:

Specs:
Old growth Eastern Maple, Honduran Mahogany, and Brazilian Rosewood fretboard.

The top is beautiful and dances in the light.
Period correct aniline dyes
100% Nitro, no plasticizers
Royalite binding


The Brazilian rosewood fretboard has nice wavy grain, the cellulose inlays and frets are in great shape.
Neck feels like the '59 Carmelita neck Gibson is now using....super comfortable.

Throbak MXV JW-102b (wired out-of-phase in the middle position - easy to reverse if needed)

Pigtail nickel abr-1 bridge
Faber lightweight aluminum tailpiece

Looking for $sold shipped and fully insured. You cover any payment fees.
Comes with a brown gator case. I have an aged Lifton case with the pink interior I'll switch out for $300 extra

Really looking for cash, but I might be interested in an Eggle or a cool Gibson Custom shop, maybe an acoustic (Santa Cruz, Goodall, custom Martin, etc). No Amps please.

WOW!

I remember lusting over this guitar when it was first built. This is what inspired me to commission my first build from Mr. H.

This is a golden opportunity for someone. If I didn't have another build in progress from the same guy, this would be on its way north already!
