This guitar is presently on ebay, http://www.ebay.com/itm/150988802785?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649, reduced from $4500. Click on the headstock photo in this link: http://www.vintageandrare.com/product/Weissenborn-Style-1-KOA-1924-Koa-Finish-30162 and you will see a hole drilled in the headstock. He removed this photo from ebay. Mutlitude of other problems besides the damaged finish, and it's a 1928 vintage. The back has been off, and sloppily replaced.

	Gitman44 says: 2/14/2013 4:43:19 PM It's being sold by Craig Brody at Guitar Broker (guitarbroker.com) in nearby Ft. Lauderdale. Craig makes his living by buying/selling vintage guitars and exotic cars. He's generally got some OK guitars, but they're almost always way overpriced for what they are (this Weissenborn is a good example). I'd go check it out, but his shop is open by appointment only and I'm not really interested in it, especially for the asking price.. Tom, you're right, this thing does have a lot of problems, and should be priced at least $2K less....
