Was planning to list it for sale somewhere, but no idea what to price it at. Any idea? Is it even worth someone's time fixing it up?

That isn’t a brag. I’ve joined the 240 club once.

The guitar also has closed back pickups. So say OP takes them out, how will they see the coils? You have no clue what you are talking about.

Have you joined the 20K volt club? I have, multiple times, I used to repair CRT and projection set televisions. Ever been popped by a flyback transformer?...

They measure the voltage by the inches of the spark. You want your heart jump started? 240 club is almost a joke, except that I hear 240 makes your muscles clinch up.. ☹️

You don't see the coils to find issues nitwit, you use a multimeter and/or an oscilloscope. Shit can and definitely does fail internally where your eyes can't see.

That's the whole reason they make advanced testing equipment. pLEaSE sToP BOthErINg mE!
