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?

I dunno, how long have you been passively testing rusty guitars rather than actually at least inspect, clean, and tune them?

You're acting as if I'm wrong for doing things with a professional priority of order of operations.

Honestly I'm done with this conversation now. Please don't bother me anymore. You can do things half-ass if you want, but I don't take liability for half-ass work.

You said a guitar could electrocute someone or blow an amp. I corrected you. The whole thread I have said a guitar cannot shock you or destroy an amp.

So far I’ve only been proven right. A guitar cannot shock you without an outside source that is already faulty and or not grounded correctly. No outside source, no shocking no damage.

No examples of amps being blown have been brought up from scratchy pots or switches. Speakers were mentioned but it also required amp volume at 100% for the speaker to break. Which any manufacturer will tell you is within normal operation.

If you are feeling bothered, you can choose to not reply to me. That is an option! From this exchange I did learn one thing. You probably have bad toan.
