Here's what came in the mail about 2 hours ago....
It's supposed to be one of those Chinese Strandberg copies with a fan fretted neck and a horrible TransTrem copy.
The Squeebay page said it was damaged, but showed the neck....
Instead it was this...
I bought this pretty cheaply, but even if it wasn't damaged - it would be a wreck. The neck is bent backwards and the truss rod doesn't seem to be working. Someone already removed the neck and drilled new mounting holes in it with a nail or something. Total butch job.
I have no idea how the bridge came to be in such a position, and I haven't yet figured out the whammy system is even mounted. There are no visible mounting screws.
I have asked for a complete refund on what I am calling the Wuhan Virus Special. Most of it should be tossed in the nearest trashcan.
