I thought the same about the Duncan Custom .... until I heard it in the neck of my SuperPro. Like buttah! Could have been the player too! Probably can't go wrong with a Lollar either!

Not a bad call!

That's the WTF bit right there.

I watched the Pistons lose to the Suns, and also the worst episode of SNL in recent memory on DVR. Still, sounds like the Grammys could have been worse than both.

That ain't a Phantom. It's one of those whacked-out Guilds from the era. Now excuse me while I turn a pistol on myself for knowing so much about a Springsteen video.

This made me LOL.

+1. It all depends on the intent behind the purchase. If you bought the guitar because you bonded with it, that's fine. If you bought the guitar because of a collectibility factor, that's fine too. If you bought the guitar to portray yourself as someone you're not, i.e. someone who busted up the guitar by playing the shit out of it a hundred times a year on some of the shittiest stages in the country, that's lame.

and OF COURSE you were the technical director of the Minneapolis jam. What's plan B for sound, Bruce? And yes, I'm still planning on attending. Jeffro has invited me down to Louisiana the following week, so rolling one event into the other sounds like a plan. Originally I thought the Louisiana thing was happening the week before the Minneapolis thing, which would effectively have eliminated me from the Minneapolis thing, because I fully expect to be deceased after the Louisiana thing.

A black custom shop ES-175 with bare wood visible where the headstock met the neck because they didn't complete the paint job was the kicker for me.

I just like how "Bertoglipwnt" sounds in my head when I read it on the screen. You know I love ya. When are you and that firecracker friend of yours gonna join me for another liquid lunch?

Wow, I don't know what to say... Bertoglipwnt

That was a helluva ramble, so much so that I don't know if this comment even applies, but working at Guitar Center in the early '90s turned me off to Gibson forever. Should have done the same for Fender, but I have two Strats that I absolutely love. The crap we got from those two companies was, if I'm being polite, off-putting. And on the Harley tip, my wife and I went on a cruise years ago and met another couple who had Harley EVERYTHING: hats, shirts, shoes, flipflops, swim trucks, towels, wallets, sunglasses, lanyards for those sunglasses, you name it. A marketer's wet dream, those two were (actually, if I recall correctly, the wife could have been anyone's wet dream).

I don't agree.

Judging by their videos, the endless parade of mugambo might have had something to do with it as well.

Unquestionably one of the worst album covers in the history of rock.

Very cool fiddle! Good luck with the sale.

Trans black OK?

Yep. The moral of the story remains the same. No one needs to buy or sell any item, let alone a guitar, badly enough to justify interacting with the human refuse that has overrun that hellhole. Set a higher standard for yourself. Resolve to stop using eBay in '09.

Flynn's Newport.

Thanks T-bags!

Man, I might need to get a couple of those for my Strats. PRS trems rule.

And oven knobs. Don't forget the oven knobs. And maybe even a wiring harness from a vintage Gibson L5. I hear they're occasionally available on eBay.

You know what it takes to make a suggestion like that? Oh wait. It's in your sig. Nevermind.

Monacos without the "shelf." The one on my SuperPro doesn't bother me at all visually or physically, but if Hamer could make the lower horn attach to the neck like a Talladega, I think you'd have a winner.

Heavy music with a groove .... love it!
