DrWario Posted March 7, 2024 Posted March 7, 2024 I ran across this on Facebook Marketplace. It is a very interesting listing, and I would consider buying if true. That said, I'm not the best historian to verify. Thoughts? What do you think it would be worth? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/423120710053684
Gitfiddler Posted March 7, 2024 Posted March 7, 2024 Beautiful guitar, but it appears there's no control panel on the backside to access electronics. Can't see the bottom bout in the pics. Maybe there's an enlarged panel near the input jack similar to the early LP Supreme?
TalismanRich Posted March 7, 2024 Posted March 7, 2024 interestingly, the Millennium H155s don't all have access panels. I've seen several. The interesting thing about this Millie is that the jack is on the top, not the rim. I guess all wiring needs to be fished through the pickup route. I think I've seen this guitar previously. I would request a view of the serial number. Still, I think 5K is a bit pricey. I think Pressure's Millie DC is access panel free.
pressure Posted March 7, 2024 Posted March 7, 2024 Both of my Millies do not have back access panels.

skydog52 Posted March 7, 2024 Posted March 7, 2024 This has been for sale on Craigslist for a long time. I talked to him once and he wouldn't budge on the price. He seemed more interested in trading for something not instrument related. Had a H-576 at one time also.

I remember something about the ones with flat backs having panels, but some have carved backs and no panel, more like a 535. I don't remember the specifics, tho. Maybe someone had more info on that.

Working in f-holes is "fun", I have to imagine this would be even moreso...
