TattooedCarrot Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 #29/72 is back in the house. This is the one that was stolen from member Formula73 years ago and returned after I ended up with it. Since then, Brandon and I have sold it back and forth to each other a couple different times. Now it's back with me.....for now, LOL. But man these from the run of 72 are sure some good looking fiddles. Currently has Antiquity PAF's in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorrow Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Do I need to say that's the kind of guitar that moves me? Re-congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBraz Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 That is just soooo cool! You know its a great guitar when it goes backwards and forwards between owners. It sounds like withdrawal symtoms! Rock on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you could split the difference and just ship it back to the other every 6-12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't heard that from you for a while to be honest. Great git! The korinas have something to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the fact that Brandon was in the Navy aboard a carrier and took it on deployments around the world is cool, not to mention wherever it's been while unaccounted for. And I know it's also been to at least one pawn shop, and one police station. The stories it could tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff R Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Those Antiquities are pretty bad ass. I just finished servicing a '76 Deluxe modified for full 'buckers and its AQs were everything you'd want in a vintage'esque pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accidentally banged it against something while the pickguard was off for Bourns pots and it just snapped the tip off at the weakest spot where the hole is.

Wrong, it's 20 years old, the pick guard shrunk, it's a vintage instrument, get your story straight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF are people's problems in here? I'm the one that broke it, I would know. Perhaps that spot was already weakened from what you describe but there's no need to be pricks about something so insignificant. Seriously.
