Seems I must have PC BO or something....

I've been considering a vintage purchase but keep running in to the same situation. The sellers don't seem to have time to take any more detailed pictures of areas of importance.

WTF - Six days left on the auction and the sellers reply was: "If I get a chance I will shoot them, but no promises...It's 110%!!

Anybody know this seller or this guitar?

If it's the San Diego guy I think it is (BIG interest in old Marshalls), he's a very unpleasant and rather unscrupulous individual. Anyone know who I mean.....

Uh, I THINK I do; in which case, he's probably too busy at the tatoo parlor to get back to people on eBay auctions, doncha know. . .;)

I heard him at one of the Texas shows a while back saying he was getting out of the guitar busuness and into a tattoo parlor as well.

Over $12k in bids now for a '53 Goldtop? :eek
Yeah, but the high bidder's name sounds like "minor ding"... there might be some leg pulling going on here.

Who would buy a $12K axe from someone who goes by the handle of Ratfart?
