That's a lot of guitar for the money.

[Hbom]

OOPS! My dyslectic ass strikes again.

Meant to say, That's a lot of money for that guitar.

[Steve Haynie]

That Standard was up for auction at String Tree earlier this year.  

We discussed it.

I believe that went for $4000 or $6000 at the auction. 

I see smell a Chicken Hawk.

This week on Pimp My guitar..

[The Shark]

I'd rather have a Kahler.

[Cary]

If I had “fuck you money”, I’d buy it just to throw it from a helicopter into a volcano so that no one would ever have to see it again.

[Steve Haynie]

I would want to try it out before you trash it.  That Standard might be a really nice guitar considering that it is a Hamer likely made by Mike Shishkov.

I have no doubt it plays beautifully, but the mismatch of Gretsch and Explorer visuals is just too ridiculous.

Jol shot down countless custom order ideas from people, but he greenlit that fucking monstrosity.
No wonder Hamer shit the bed.

[WorstBandName]

That's a wild flip price from the auction at that ended below $5K.  I guess KCV can demand that sort of thing.

They're about to find out that, no, they can't.

That is a complete miscalculation of the market and the value of that particular monstrosity - I mean - "instrument."

It's kind of cool... but I think you can get too cute with these custom orders,  that seller will have

a long and happy life with it at 14K.

How I like to imagine it happened:

Jol:  Beautiful!  Now throw these gold Filtertrons and this humongous gold Bigsby on it!

Mike, dying inside:

Agreed - Meant to say, " I guess KCV thinks they can demand that sort of thing."

Seller is fucking high. Bigsby is cool but not $14k cool…and not even $4k cool.
