Greco !" MIJ" Bargain of the day! - Page 98

vintageJIM · 05-29-2012, 08:10 PM

LOL .............
saving my dimes because I paid OVER twice the price for this one than what I paid for it originally, before I sold it nearly 7 years ago; why?
Because IMO it's worth it

it will fit in very nicely with the Combat flame top & the BLS-54 goldie; the quality IMO is comparable & it is that good

will have it in my grubby mitts tomorrow

well, the bids on already

probably will pay more than is needed but i love SG jnrs so must have it

wulfman · 05-31-2012, 04:50 AM

You need this one to keep the SG company. 21k BIN.

Mr Teeny · 05-31-2012, 05:00 AM

Thats been around for a while @ 30K can't see it lasting long now the BIN's 21K. Pity they removed the headstock script so it's not too clear which burny junior model it is, either way 21K is a steal as it looks in decent enough condition. The compensated bridge should be a clue as to which model dunno if the rock n roll ones had them

tonebone · 06-02-2012, 10:01 PM

OK, who got the Burny Custom?

Just an FYI.

mono · 06-04-2012, 07:38 AM

wheres the pickup selector?

wulfman · 06-04-2012, 07:46 AM

Where the volume pot for the neck usually is...

JDB · 06-04-2012, 07:51 AM

something different from MIJ epi. not cheap though.

mono · 06-04-2012, 07:52 AM

that is keraazy

wulfman · 06-06-2012, 09:05 AM

Edwards E-LP-125ALC at a decent price. I played this guitar a couple of weeks ago in the shop. Fairly thin neck but very nice at that price.

o0mobius0o · 06-07-2012, 02:47 PM

Too nice to last I suppose.

wulfman · 06-07-2012, 05:15 PM

Looks to be gone now.

wulfman · 06-10-2012, 06:09 PM

Deal of the minute.
If I had more time before I left Japan I'd grab it.

wulfman · 06-10-2012, 06:47 PM

I knew I could count on the mighty KON*****!

JDB · 06-10-2012, 06:56 PM

So what did the Zs go for if I may ask

vintageJIM · 06-10-2012, 07:07 PM

only owned 2 sets of Zs myself .........

..... one set I bought from RyanC for 6 bills & sold them for 7 bills

I currently have a second set that I have about $50 in ........... don't think they will ever be going away

......

wulfman · 06-10-2012, 07:51 PM

57k I think for that pair of Zs. I only paid a bit more for the Super Real custom with Zs that I had and traded on Friday. I'm going to miss Japan....

Have you sold everything you wanted to before the move?

wulfman · 06-10-2012, 08:17 PM

No more candidates for sale anymore and down 24 total including 2 works in progress for refin. For LPs down to 12 with 5 Bacchus, 4 Tokai, 1 Greco, 1 Navi and a Gibson. Still can't stop looking for a deal though!

LOL Harold; those Bacchus R crap, aren't they?

............. what; not a single Burny?

what represents a "deal" in your book, Harold?

sounds like you have perpetual GAS .............. was it the ribs, or the beans?

JDB · 06-10-2012, 08:32 PM

Wont be much room left on the plane for you Harold.

Deal would be something rare and well-made at an affordable price, like the Bacchus Jeff Beck model.

I did hang on to a Burny Firebird and just ended up selling the best Burny LP I had to Mono. The early 80's Burny LPs I had seemed to be the best to me despite the anomalies each one had. I had a 70s Terada Burny custom that was great but thin in the neck so those FLG/FLCs are another bunch of possibilities. It was a toss-up of what to keep but the Burnys are still out there in large numbers and half the fun is looking for a keeper.

Udonitron · 06-11-2012, 01:07 AM

Yeah you can find gems and turds in every brand.
Some prefer to buy to brag their schwag and some buy to play and appreciate each bump and bruise.
Keep using em for their purpose to play is all I can say

Leave the fashion for Zoolander
