The sad part is that you can be pretty darn sure that the (presently) 1 bid is from an OFC member.

If you could buy it cheap enough, you could send it to the factory for a "spa" visit.....

Actually a 12 string trap trailpiece isn't cheap so maybe worth buying just to have as a spare part for your Hurricane.

I'm looking at the 'little crack that barely goes through' the back of the headstock, and into the slot... First time Fed Ex drops that, it's history. But yeah, buy it cheap and send it to Mom!

Twas I.

Once you start chasing ambulances its hard to stop. My bid was for $7.77, made mostly so I could track it easier.

It's a sickness without cure... only treatment and therapy.

BTW - Someone want to explain to AJ what "intervention" means?
:eek:

Well, I separated the neck and sanded down the top tonight. I don't think he'll take it back.

It most likely will end up with a Koa top layer and some Abalone around the edges.

...and a new bridge of course.

I'm a hack Mando player and it will always be plugged in so I get to practice on this one.

Just old Woodworker with more inspiration than talent. Whaddya goin do but try?
