You can make life easier for yourself by putting this quote in your signature.

That way every post you make will have this information, rather than every other one.

And none of you can have it!

Fun huh?

I paid about fifty dollars for your mom a few years back. She's been passed around quite a bit since then. Her humbucker has been warped all to hell and her neck has a lot of wear.

Jealousy, such a vulgar thing...

PWN3R1Z3D!

Here we go. Going to EBay it as soon as the shitty brown one disappears:

















and of course:





Both of these were done super close up and make the cracks look as detailed as I can. They're the least significant of any 500 I have seen.

Here's a pic of them under normal light and you can see what I mean:



tatty bye!

Forgive me for offering unsolicited advise, but wouldn't you be better off sticking your one up while the other one is still up too?

The people who are bidding on the brown one won't know your's is coming, and you're going to lose AT LEAST one potential bidder with ready cash (the one who buys the other one).

Just sayin'.

My logic says put it up when lots of people have just lost out on the brown one...

"lost out on the brown one"

c'mon Daniel Robert Chapman, thats gift wrapped for you...

(again forgive me)

The person who wins the brown one (assuming that anybody bids for it) will be the person who is willing to pay more than the 'losers', presumably if you sell it to one of the losers, it'll be for a lower price than the one they couldn't afford, no?

Also, if the brown one goes for proper money, you might find that a few pop up immediately afterwards inspired by the price of the brown one.

I might be wrong, but this is how is goes with (my far cheaper weakness) Westones.

I could be entirely wrong, obviously.

I know theres another one about to be listed as well. I just figure if two people are really battling it out then the loser will be doubly desperate to win the next one that comes along and I think mine's nicer too so I figure it might work out. I mean, I'd take $4000 for it now!

I agree as well, Westones are rocking. I had a Thunder 1A. Looked hideous, played great, sounded better than a les paul.
