That's a really pretty Les Paul, Molly, well done. And a great price. I can 'store' that for you for nothing.
I do like that one... and again, what 's happening to LP prices? Six weeks ago $2700 seemed a steal....
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

Nice looking LP indeed. But the shot with the sellers hand supporting the neck makes it look rather small or conversely him rather big. :crazy:

They're starting to reflect their true value?


:shifty: I'll get my coat.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Judging by Guitars Rock new prices seem down too so maybe it's the follow-on from that. Time they had a 'correction'.

Nice. Love stereo reinforcement. :) What does the Headrush do that sets it apart from the Yamaha/JBL/Mackies of this world?
cheap and I already have one so OCD :)
Just a great frfr on a budget :)
haha Nice one. OCD. I get you. :)

I'm lusting for a V6 spider, but tbh the twinspark has quite a lot of poke as it is.
