currypowder Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 I figured you pulled the trigger. I swung by the store at lunch (it's fairly close) and noticed it was gone. They were busy, so I couldn't ask them. I'm glad to hear that they treated you right and were willing to discount a guitar that has been on the wall for a few months. You probably talked to Jimmy, who's owned and run the store since he opened in the late 70's. Give us a report when it gets there.
black magic Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 $500 shipped is a great price for that bro!! Being a 1995, my bet it has a medium neck as I owned a 1995 years ago and miss that one the most of all :-( Jack.

How sweet of you, Currypowder!! (Well, as I'm an ocean away (!) I need all the help I can get!) No, I couldn't wait any longer... I just had to get it FAST... I mean, someone (of you) could have beat me to it...! Yes, I can really recommend Guitar-Emporium.com - and its owner Jimmy, who was cool, calm and pleasant to deal with over the phone. And, yes - of course - I WILL post pics and a report when it gets to me, here in Sweden!
Sentinel Posted June 29, 2006 Author Posted June 29, 2006 $500 shipped is a great price for that bro!! No, 500 PLUS $140 for shipping to Sweden... AND swedish customs and tax (when it arrives)... will cost me approx $200 ... So guitar, shipping, customs etc will be... (500+140+200) = $840 THAT's the bottom line for us europeans... Be happy that you live in The Hamer Country! (I guess that you are!) (I'll come visiting the USA some day! I really want to!!)
black magic Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 Wow man, they really hit you with high taxes and shit over there man!! I hope the guitar is everything you dreamed about bro :-) Yes, I live in the USA in Pennsylvania and we are lucky to live where there are alot of Hamers!! Congrats-Jack.
