crunchee Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 No affiliation, both of them showed up at DGS this afternoon, but I dunno if they were owned by the same person or not. No year of manufacture mentioned on the Robin Wrangler Custom: https://davesguitar.com/products/thorn/deluxe-13/ https://davesguitar.com/products/robin/wrangler-custom-recent/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kizanski Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 That's pretty freaking hot, but I don't know how "recent" it could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sure looks like a fun one! $1195 isn't a bad asking price, either. And it's definitely a USA Robin. If anyone cares to call about it, the first two numbers of the serial number represent the last two numbers in the year of manufacture. Ex: 02XXXX is a 2002.

chromium Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Agree - that is a nice price on the Robin. Paid more for my E-Type, and worth every cent. Love that guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got one too, and _love_ that guitar. Though after seeing this one, I'm tempted to send it to Stike for a orange sparkle upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like some color in my life, but the wood on that thing is just too pretty to cover. I did strip mine down and buff out the satin clear to a glossy sheen more like the neck.

It's definitely a great asking price, but does Dave's deal though? Uninformed in that area. The main thing holding me back is that licensed Bigsby. Those things are less than quality and you can't simply bolt up a USA Bigsby in place of one without adding a couple of holes. Dave Wintz is a quality builder, no doubt. Every USA Robin I've owned or played is top notch. Bummer he's (semi) retired. Still that orange flake calls to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not so much on gear that has only been on the site a few days, but even then they're very reasonable. The Serial looks like 057122, so it's a 2005 (if my eyes are working). Any Robin fan would be wise to grab that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
