Hi everyone,
I'm new to the forum and hoping to draw on your knowledge and expertise here. I'm in conversation with a seller about a S100 Carved Stereo from 1973 (serial 80456). I'm buying under lockdown so the opportunity to check it out in-person are limited though the buy has sent a decent amount of images and is going to do a video demo. From what he's said it's a factory Stereo (with 'Stereo' TRC) and he thought the bridge pickup wasn't working until he realised he need a Y-cable.
I'd love to know what you guys think of it and whether it looks like a sound purchase? Also, will I need to run this into two amps to get it working or should a standard jack just give a normal output? Otherwise, I might be tempted to convert it to mono.
It looks pretty clean but well played to my eyes with some pitting around the second fret. Is there anything anyone would recommend inspecting more closely?
