Travis 4,719 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 At first I thought it could be a cool little travel guitar until I got to the pics of the scalloped fretboard. It was at that exact moment that a boner died... 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's been on my ebay watch list for at least 10 years...I'm still waiting if the price is gonna come down to $150 may be :)) I'd turn this setneck it into something really nice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JustKid 513 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Decided to drop him a line asking if after 10 or so years of trying he'd consider selling it cheaper. His respond: I retire in 5 years, try again then....... He is a funny guy, I'll give him that, although not very smart 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
