Thanks for all the information. The serial number is 1014589 . the paint surely is aged but no smell of smoke in the case or the guitar fortunately. I really like the way the finish looks. very thin with a lot of thin cracks. The markings are real interesting?

Took a chance on this strange color Springy since it came with the hard to find brown case and the price was reasonable. When I opened it up, it has some strange markings shown in the pictures below. Could this be a one off color possibly Sage Green? [SG] color code in cavity. Hard to show the...

Wow that's a rare bird! I have a springy and a silver star in MG both with maple necks. Sure would love to have that one!!

I made a few purchases in 2022 but this one is my favorite. only one I've ever come across. 1982 es200

1980 ST80RBL V

Nope

I was thinking the same thing....

Thanks, I did buy it. According to Peter Mac's book silver stars were never offered in LPB except through special order and he has only ever seen one.

Very rare 1981 LPB Silver star. These are sellers pictures. I don't have it yet.
