Well, DON, considering one of the traits of the Moon Ebony board guitars has that rose and maple don't is that the fret markers stop instead of being visible in fret 15,17,19 etc. It isn't until I realized your V was a Moon, did I examine the board in the pic here and see now that the higher frets are naked.

Don, do they really end the moons after the 9th fret?
Or am I missing something in this guy's pic? His moons look all jacked up.

Looking at the rest of his pics, this whole guitar looks like it has been rode hard and put away wet. Not just played a couple times and realized V's aren't for him.

Sort of looks like the knobs are crummy lookin and the slots on the stoptail too.

Nope, the angle makes the 12th fret marker dark, and almost invisible.

Perhaps this Craigslist poster is embellishing a bit...it is a lefty V.

I dunno man, I can see the reflection of the cell phone, and the two handed handling of it, taking the picture. Now that I look....do I see signs that the plastic is still on the pick guard?(the edge below the input jack)
I really only posted because I ran in to it while running an SG search...I had never seen a lefty crescent moon V.

The intonation is totally backwards on that bridge!!Looking at the rest of his pics, this whole guitar looks like it has been rode hard and put away wet. Not just played a couple times and realized V's aren't for him.
I was thinking the same! When I was trying to remember if my righty bridge was tilted the same way....I was trying to envision the intonation setting if it were flipped to righty.

Maybe that guy is selling it cuz he could never get the guitar to tune up properly...
Perhaps I should go up there, and show him how “broken” it is. Then offer to scrap it for him. Maybe give him a couple bucks for the pickups, if they stay in tune...Maybe that guy is selling it cuz he could never get the guitar to tune up properly...
No hammer required...I will bury it quietly, and respectfully....I promise.
...and you don’t wanna come up here anyway...there’s snow....for reelz.
