Wandre Soloist circa 1960s Bowling Ball

I said I'd never do it and hell maybe it won't happen cause this is a lot of dough to ask in this rocky ole economy. But, here is the insanely illusive and rare Wandre Soloist in its most desirable 3 Davoli pickup configuration.
Its also sporting this beautiful bowling ball esque finish....I've never seen another Soloist in this particular finish. The pickup holding cradle has a couple of cracks but these are secure. This pickup holder was once buried in bondo and painted silver but the incredible and caring hands of sweet Joe Glaser saved it and restored to its current incredible state.
It plays perfectly and sounds incredible.
As you can see it was featured in a beautiful Nashville exhibit of rare and beautiful instruments from the US and a few from Europe.
The pics say it all really, there are no major cracks to the finish or body, its in pretty immaculate shape for its age and for a Wandre in general.
