I just love those Stinger cases, although in those
pictures you can’t really tell it’s tweed.

...well,no one took it...

LPCollector · 06-30-2008, 09:29 PM

......not yet!

I know it has ended, but it's not the end for me.

Mike60 · 06-30-2008, 09:33 PM

Ghengis must have given it the two thumbs up...if anyone gets it,I hope you do...

I'm working on a bazilla('60jr.) right now,don't know whether I'll end up with it tho'...

Thanks Mike!...that was nice to say.

Please let us know if it works out.....sounds like old wood to me!

.......why do I get the feeling it's a '54?

Nevermind, I see you edited......very cool! I want one too!

Mike60 · 06-30-2008, 09:41 PM

...'60 jr...player grade,not sure if I'm totally sold on the single pickup idea...they do sound great(guy I work with has a '57 he bought new in '57 and loaned it to me for a weekend).

LPCollector · 06-30-2008, 10:14 PM

I love my R7 Junior......so, it's easy for me to imagine how cool an original '60 would be.
There is a simplistic beauty to one P-90.......it actually taught me how to more effectively use the knobs on all my LP's!

Mike60 · 06-30-2008, 10:18 PM

those dogears really rip.We'll see what happens...

Mike60 · 07-02-2008, 07:20 AM

...the stingy is RELISTED...

Mike60 · 07-04-2008, 07:08 PM

no trigger pulling?...

ReverendJWblues · 07-05-2008, 07:21 PM

Now honestly Mikey, do you really think that one is worth the $12,000 the guy wants for it?
The only trigger I would be pulling is to the gun I had to my head, if I gave that for it.
But hey thats just me.

Mike60 · 07-05-2008, 09:22 PM

Rev...if it was an R0,I'd most likely match the opening bid of 10k...

I hear ya brother, I'm not discrediting the guitar, if you could buy it for the opening bid is one thing, but the BIN is another. A R0 would be better I agree. Now I cant tell by the pics but it looked to me like a fret was pulling I dunno maybe its just the pic, but he showed that particular fret for some reason, I have bad eyes anyways. And when they tell me it's 9.9 mint with slight play wear I'm suspicious anyways. No doubt it's nice, but for 12g's I can find lots of nice guitars. And in my opinion within the next few yr's the market will probably crater, maybe not, there is always a buyer for something. If I have guitars I gotta play em, thats my flaw in the guitar collecting world. I just cant look at them, mine will never be worth what I pay for them just too much damage I do to them. You know far more about the value in the market than I do brother, maybe it is worth that in the market, just not to me. My thinking is I could almost buy 3 nice R0s for that one.

Mike60 · 07-05-2008, 10:02 PM

...I agree the BIN is up there,for sure...and $12k can still get you some nice old wood...

RCCola · 07-05-2008, 10:12 PM

I've never understood these auction for multi-thousand dollar items where the seller doesn't shell out the extra 65 cents for large images...

ReverendJWblues · 07-05-2008, 11:13 PM

The more I look at it, it would have looked Damn fine with some reflectors.

And even fogot to mention earlier some fine old wood dog eared jr's would me more interested.
