I was traveling yesterday and stopped at a gas station for a rest room break. I decided to grab a Powerball ticket. Handed the girl a twenty. She gave me the ticket, four fives and three ones in change. I immediately said “hey you gave me too much change”, and she was thankful that I was honest. I believe in karma, and while every man has his price, mine would be a lot higher than $5. THAT SAID, if they sent me that wrong guitar, it would have taken me several more minutes to come to the decision you made to call and tell them. If it was Guitar Center, it might have taken several hours, or maybe days LOL. You made the right and moral decision, but if I was the owner of that shop, I would have at least credited you $50 for your trouble.

How hard is it to read the gigantic letters on the headstock?

I second that. Hard to believe it’s been nearly thirty years! I’ve made some lifelong friends here (as well as a couple of enemies LOL), and it’s been a blast! In fact, Chris and Steve Matthes were a couple of the earliest members I got to know, I think. Good times!

Even with a few battle scars, that’s a good deal. And some people actually prefer the Gotoh bridge.

“And don’t call me Shirley”.

Now I’m curious…. I may be wrong, but I don’t think it was “Br…….” based on the fact I don’t remember him redoing guitars, only buying them, spending a couple of days gushing about how great they were or feigning confusion over their pedigree, and then flipping them for a nice profit.

Spinal Tap is one of my all time favorites. RIP

For me, it’s been like 8 in, 1 out over the years. 😂

Wonder who that could be? 😂 IIRC, I think mine was originally red, but was refinished before it ever left the factory! Rare color!

Sorry to hear this, Mike. Take care of yourself - you are a living legend ‘round these parts, and we’d like to keep it that way!

Take a lude corncob! Nobody forced you to click on this thread. Wow-that was an ill-advised post... Don't know you, but why don't you come on in and piss all over the furniture, ok? Maybe it's not so surprising the HOC fell apart, after all... My thoughts exactly.

Thank You.

Yeah, I can't figure that out either.
