BadgerDave Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 UPDATE: Ulitmate is sold. Cobra is still available Amazing guitars that I have enjoyed owning, but I'm not using them and I've decided to sell . Ideally, I'd like to trade one of these for a Triple Threat in excellent condition, but if that isn't in the cards, I'll sell either for the price I sold my last TT for. $3,300 shipped and insured within the U.S. Available here to HFC supporting members for a week. The Ultimate is #16, completely stock and in like new condition. The Cobra is # 72. It currently has mini-humbuckers installed and I replaced the original Schaller mini tuners with full sized versions. The original Lollar pickups can be reinstalled if desired. Full details, measurements and photos are available, but please ask only if you are seriously interested in purchasing. Other than the TT, I'm not interested in any trades. No condolences needed, I'm not sick or destitute (knock on wood). BTW, Mike is the greatest guitar builder on the planet as well as one of the nicest people I've encountered. These guitars are full of positive happy mojo. Cobra specs: 7 lbs., 5 oz. Neck thickness: 0.927" @ 1st fret, 1.018" @ 12th fret C profile New photo shows the Cobra in its current configuration with DiMarzio mini hum buckers and Schroeder bridge. Hardware is chrome.
currypowder Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 I am so glad I scratched my Shishkov itch a few weeks back, I would have a hard time resisting.
Thundersteel Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 Just when I thought my GAS was cured...GLWTS!

DBraz Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Woh... Two Shishkov’s for sale from the same owner? GLWTS’s
Travis Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Damn... my embargo lifts in January. Why now...?!? GLWTS
Dana_V Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 If no one here buys them, there was a guy posting in the Shishkov group on Facebook about how he desperately wants an Ultimate. I don't know him and I don't know how serious he is, but it might be worth looking into. It was in response to when I posted a picture of mine:https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10213790137302469&set=gm.2456616787753990&type=3&theater&ifg=1
django49 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 It is times like this that (almost) make me forget the Standard/Ultimate is not the best fit for my particular body. Still, it tugs at me......
alextazy Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 that Cobra...🙈🤤 fortunately I don't have the money GLWTS
hamerhead Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 I've seen Dave's Ultimate in person. It is soooooo much better than the picture. Breathtaking, really.
cornjulio Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Two absolutely stunning instruments!!! I would love to have that Ultimate, a future pices of guitar history right there as far as I'm concerned.
Dutchman Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Man... the Cobra is a dream guitar for me... I love my Artists!! Timing’s off right now... dang it... GLWTS
spanky Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 WOW! Purple awesomeness. man o man that is beautiful.
tommy p Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I'm not in the market right now, but I sure would like to see that Ultimate's headstock. Beautiful color!

BadgerDave Posted October 21, 2019 Author Posted October 21, 2019 One bump before I raise the price and list the Cobra on Reverb. Actually, it may be a few days before I get around to writing a description and taking new photos. But, until then, Price reduced to $3,000.00 inc. U.S. shipping and insurance, but you pay PayPal fees if used. Still willing to trade for a Triple Threat in excellent condition, changed pickups and wiring are OK
