Well, you may be looking for a pretty rare configuration, it seems like most Persuaders were outfitted in the PJ fashion prevalent in the 80s.

Big fan of the Persuader bass here. Adriaan is correct, that's not an especially common configuration for Persuader. I can remember a very small handful of them. In fact, so few that I think I remember exactly the one in your other other post... was this it? https://reverb.com/item/39286706 (https://reverb.com/item/39286706)

There are probably more of the zebrawood topped Spoilers with a single AXY pickup and front-mounted controls than the Persuader variants. Those were made for export to the Japanese market, but they turn up for sale every so often. A few Club Members here have one and think highly of them.

If you really want exactly that, and are patient, another one will come along. I'll file that information away and keep an eye open for one.

For reference from a google search, theses are all posted as one pickup Persuaders, although not currently for sale.

I was thinking of Distillates, but doing too many things at once, and posted Spoilers... Thanks Adriaan.  ;)
