That's a beauty! I wish my GSR T-500 had a 1-piece back like that instead of a 2-piece back.

I have no business owning that, but it sure is sweet, and the $2350 asking price seems reasonable to me. <https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/331354298097639/>

Wow, that’s a beauty. I hope someone here gets it!

Cool guitar!

Sweet!!

Is a T-500 similar size wise to an X-170?

 

[Jeff Haddad]

That T 500 looks sweet!

By the way, the other link is for a full depth X500, equally nice though!

Looking at the T-500's serial number (AG100168), it appears that it must have been a leftover 1984-85 DE-500 body. Maybe they ran out of DeArmond pickups, DE sig pickguard and TRC so it was fitted HB-1s and stairstep pg and renamed T-500 instead.
