Aw man! Sorry to keep you waiting!!

Well done!

They were only in the catalog for a couple of years. I get what they were trying to do - it was the age of rack-mounted processors and all that garbage - but they didn’t sell all that well.

It's a Korean SAT/Import - not a USA model. I had to laugh at the "Randy Rhoads" signature on a guitar that was built a couple of decades after he died...who knew he had a time machine?!

If you knew “The Maestro”, then that horrid piece of ugly would make perfect sense. Not saying it would be right, but you’d understand…

Because we don't give airtime to people who have been confirmed as scamming any of our members. People can go other places for that.

Restringing my Les Pauls ASAP...

The Oilville, VA show is where they had their Cedar Creek Custom Shop for high end cases too.

Well, THERE'S a blast from the past! Fortunately, I never had any business dealings with that clown, but plenty of folks here (and on TGP) sure did. I wish I could remember a particular one-liner you used as a classic smack-down to one of that guy's fanbois...it was a certifiable entry in the Kiz Hall of Fame!

Absolutely stunning, killer guitar! I’m a huge fan of the TVJ DuoTron in the neck position too, so even cooler! Somebody needs to jump on this one... (and yes, I do have it in pink…sorta 😉)

I responded to a post on TGP where several people were complaining that he had taken their deposits (thousands, not hundreds of dollars), and then stopped returning emails and calls before completely blocking communication. I had two friends at the time who were out money to him and knew of a third, and simply posted a warning to check things out first. He sent me a completely unhinged rant via TGP messages threatening to sue me into oblivion and name-dropping some NJ attorney “who has never lost a case”. I reported the threat to TGP and blocked him, and will not take down a 100% truthful comment. The close friend of mine finally got his after seeing the guy selling completed guitars on his website and raising hell/consulting an attorney. He said it was something he didn’t want as soon as he got it because the whole experience had completely tainted the thing.

100% a refin.

Duuuuude! That’s freaking gorgeous.

I’ll say it again… Trogly is a fucking hack.

Sending all the positive mojo able to be sent directly your way, Vic! Gook luck through the recovery and getting back to your badassed self soon…

For $600, I’ll paint my VOX wah!

At the time that ad came out, he was maybe a year younger than that pic. 😉

Thanks, Ted! As always, yew rawk. 🤘

S.I.T. Had a similar issue in the late 90s/Early 2000s. Really damaged the brand.

I wish that was the one I caught! Mine was ‘81 with Foghat (and Shooting Star) opening…in the glorious Wicomico Youth and Civic Center. I think we went with Kevin Moore, Carla Varisco, Debbie Hobbs and Kristen Luiken. That part is a little vague! 😂

Smack dab between Dallas and Ft. Worth.

Without pictures, it's worthless.

Nope - that was a real ad.

I have been called SO much worse...
