Someone who might know, was this considered a JL model at the time, or only with the reissue of the JL3?

Yes, but it wasn't ever officially called 'The Lennon Model' and if the price doesn't go up much more, a real steal. Maybe for ME! gwar...harr....heh..heh. Well, my wife will kill me if I bring another guitar home, so someone else will have to take it.

Yes. I have one of the 1981 originals that I purchased new. A picture of John Lennon playing one of these models in the studio apparently serves as the basis for adding his name to the reissue.

I'm in the same boat as brainslag. I'd really like to add a Custom Legend or similar guitar to the collection, but I need to slow down a little. I've finally agreed with my wife that I have too many guitars. Doesn't mean I'll sell any, I just have to make sure I play them more.

The 1651 was called the Legend Limited. When Nakao ordered a special run of reissues to coincide with the 25th anniversary of JL death a lot of us here in the board started calling this guitar the JL Reissue. I think there are 5 or 6 of them in the US. Dave

Marginally OT, but does anyone know who delbert_farquart is? I see him bid alot on O's - even outbid him on my Custom Legend a few months ago.

Nicely done, Tony! He sells (or at least has for sale) a lot of nice looking O's on the bay. I've seen a few of his listings recently...solids, CL's, etc, all nice looking. Priced on the high side, but if he gets it, more power to him.
