Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

I always loved vintage bursts, and always loved customs, but the combination of the two just screams ugly to me. I guess its the triple binding

DONT DO ITT

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

Do IT!!!!

(I love those plus top customs. You don't often see them.)

Epiphone pissed me off for like 2 years because they kept that picture up on their site but you couldn't buy one.

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

I know it's rare as hell, there was another one locally a few months ago that was fake as could be.

This one isn't and it's a looker too....I hate things like this.

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

Its $350....

If its been on there for a while then 3 100 bills will take it home...

...think about that... $300 for a sweet Custom...

Think about that...

















Wait someone just called the guy and offered him $250,... hes thinking about it... he said no... this time.

You know someone is going to buy this and then prop it up in a closet for years.... never to see the daylight again.

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

Ask Hack for a loan, pay him on installment basis for a year and then grab it! That's a beauty, you'll regret if somebody beats you to it.

I can't stand it, either, and it's because of those open humbuckers. Put some covers on those things and that guitar will actually be quite lovely.

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

I am, for a reason. I couldnt pass it up if it were in my area. It looks like a great deal.
If I were short on funds I would hit the Plazma Center and sell a few other things to make it happen...

I have chickens & eggs, and goats and could cut a few ricks of firewood to sell, something!

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

Go there with 3 bills, I bet you can pick it up. I like those vintage burst customs! I missed out on that special run.

Just do it,

Re: I hate myself for wanting it.

I want one of those myself and I don't even care for Customs.

But that one, or one that's all natural would be really hard to turn down.

These guitars don't pop up often, so I'd snag it fast.
